EV860 Navigation Sonar
Forward-looking navigation sonar that detects underwater obstacles such as ice, rocks and reefs, with a hydraulic hoist and 11–360° scan sector.
Description
The EV860 navigation sonar detects underwater obstacles such as ice, rocks and reefs, which radar and visual watch cannot see. Part of its 110 kHz transducer forms a wide beam that scans hundreds of meters ahead and classifies the bottom, supporting anchoring and reef avoidance.
Key features
- User-set scan sector from 11 to 360°, oriented with a knob on the control panel
- Hydraulic hoist deploys or retracts the 10-inch soundome in five seconds
- Single or dual beam
- 110 or 220 VAC hydraulic hoist
Applications
- Cruise and expedition ships navigating in ice or uncharted waters
- Research vessels and yachts
