1. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
1-13
sound is reflected just like a light hitting a mirror at a narrow incident angle, it propa-
gates away and the sea surface reflections become negligible.
However if the sea is not calm enough, they will become dominant and will interfere
with observation of wanted echoes. To minimize these sea surface reflections and to
search surface schools of fish effectively, the tilt angle is usually set to 5-6 degrees so
that the upper portion of the beam becomes almost parallel with the sea surface.
When the sea is rough, it is often set to a little larger angle.
*: 15° for CSH-5LMARK-2, 13° for CSH-8LMARK-2

1.4.6 Suitable tilt angle
The table below shows the estimated detection range for tilt angles of 0, 5, 10 and
15 degrees. Refer to the table to find suitable tilt angle from depth and detection range.
