CHAPTER 1: O
VERVIEW
The Series 5000 V2 Sonar System is a very high resolution, multibeam long range
sonar system that is ideally suited for surface mine counter measure applications
and hydrographic, geophysical, pipeline, and offshore surveys. The two primary
drawbacks of conventional side-looking sonars, along-track resolution and towing
speed limitation, have been addressed by simultaneously forming multiple
dynamically focused beams per side, per ping. This allows greater towing speeds
without the usual loss of bottom coverage while maintaining high resolution. The
system employs operator selectable chirp and continuous wave (CW) technologies
which, when coupled with KMS proprietary display algorithms, provides
extraordinary sea floor images. In addition, rugged construction, low weight and
simple setup enables operation from large or small vessels.

Main Features
The Series 5000 V2 Sonar System provides the following main features:
• High speed, high resolution, multibeam side scan sonar.
• 14-bit digital multiplexer for transmission of sonar and control
data over a single coaxial cable.
• PC based operation using SonarPro and the Windows operating
system.
• Operation at 455 kHz for ranges up to 150 meters.
• Flexible and expandable system configurations.
• Chirp and CW operating modes.
• 500-meter operating depth (200-meter with bathymetry option).
• Operation with up to 800 meters of coaxial 0.680-inch diameter
armored tow cable.
• Heading, pitch, roll and pressure sensors.
• Optional interfaces for a responder, acoustic positioning system
yaw rate sensor, and altimeter.
• Small, lightweight and simple to operate and maintain.
