Datasheet
Wideband Sub-Mini (Remote Transducer Version)
Description
Sonardyne’s family of Wideband
Sub-Minis (WSMs) are a versatile,
high performance range of USBL
transponder/ responders designed
for positioning ROVs, towfish and
other mobile subsea targets.
Compact and rugged, WSMs
incorporate the latest Sonardyne
Wideband® signal technology
which offers superior ranging
accuracy, operation in a mulit-user,
multi-vessel environment and fast
USBL position updates.
The Type 8071-000-07 WSM is a
1,000 metre depth rated unit
equipped with a cable connected
omni-directional remote transducer.
The remote transducer feature offers
users the maximum flexibility when
installing the WSM on a vehicle such
as an AUV where space is often
restricted. The electronics bottle can
be mounted internally within the
vehicle whilst the transducer can be
located externally ensuring clear line
of sight with the surface.
The remote transducers are also
compatible with Sonardyne
Wideband Mini Transponders and
AV-Trak 2 LBL transceivers.
