INTRODUCTION
The SCAN-650 is a high performance imaging sonar system available in two different package
configurations which enables it be used on large or small ROVs. It can also be pole-mounted and
used from a small boat in shallow water.
The Sonar Processor is located in the boat and
allows fine tuning of the signal from the electronics
module prior to being displayed and recorded on
the PC display. It is used with both of the above
models. The Sonar Processor also includes an
interface for a GPS receiver.
The SCAN-650A configuration is used with
larger ROVs, or when the main application is
boat deploying the unit on a pole (see photo next page).
The black scanning head is connected permanently to
the electronics module. A cable (not shown) comes out
of the bottom of the electronics module and connects
to the Sonar Processor.
The SCAN-650B configuration is used with
smaller ROVs. The black scanning head is mounted
to the front of the ROV and a short cable connects the
head to the electronics module which is mounted on the
side or under the ROV. Cabling options include a hardwired
version where a cable comes out of the bottom of the of the
electronics module and connects directly to the Sonar Pro-
cessor or a set of short wires equipped with under water con-
nectors and a hull penetrator. This option allows the wiring from
the scanning head to enter the ROV. The scannin head can
draw power from the ROV and utilize (2) spare wires in the ROV
umbilical cable for communication with the Sonar Processor.
