Following the introduction at the beginning of this year Kongsberg informed that its Clariscan domed scanning sonar is now available.
Clariscan combines wide bandwidth composite transducer technology, developed by Kongsberg Maritime’s Canadian subsidiary Kongsberg Mesotech, with a patented acoustic lens.
“We are very pleased to introduce Clariscan technology to our product line,” says Daryl Morse , sales manager at Kongsberg Mesotech.
Deep water testing in the Gulf of Mexico has shown the clarity of images produced by the Clariscan compared to a standard 1171 domed sonar with composite transducer, the company noted.
Kongsberg is taking orders of the Clariscan domed scanning sonar and the new units are going into production effective immediately, the company added.
