Simrad EC150-3C
The Simrad EC150-3C is a 150 kHz phased-array transducer designed for current
profiling applications. It offers 2.8 degrees beamwidth for accurate current profiling and
2.5 degrees beamwidth when applied as a split-beam echo sounder transducer.
The EC150-3C is delivered with a power supply and an open-ended cable. The
transducer cable is 40 metres long. One end of the cable is connected to the transducer.
The other end is terminated in the power supply.
The transducer is normally mounted flush
with the hull plating or the bottom of a
blister. A clamping ring is used to secure
the transducer body to a mounting ring.
The mounting ring is welded into the hull
plating.
The transducer can also be flush mounted
in the same manner at the bottom of a
blister or a drop keel.
The transducer cable penetrates the hull
using a cable gland. This cable gland
consists of a bushing, washers, a rubber
gasket and a packing nipple.
