Fishers SSS-100K/600K dual frequency side scan sonar represents
a major price/performance
breakthrough in low cost side scan systems. A single frequency
side scan (100K or 600K) is available at an even lower cost. The
single frequency systems can be updated to a dual frequency The 600K single frequency side scan is ideal for law enforcement and dive rescue operations because of it's very high resolution over ranges up to 200'(400' swath). The higher frequency can show targets (drowning victims, clothing, etc) that lower frequency (100K to 300K) systems have difficulty detecting. The limitation of the 600K system is shorter range as compared to lower frequency side scan. However, the higher resolution of the high frequency is ideal when searching for small targets. The 100K single frequency system is best for wreck hunting or general search applications. It has excellent long range capabilities of up to 1,800' per side (3,600' swath). The dual frequency
(100K/600K) side scan gives the operator the best of both
systems. It allows 600K operation (very high resolution) when
searching for small or soft targets and 100K operation when
searching for larger targets or covering wide search areas. A 17" wide thermal printer provides a detailed picture of the ocean floor and profile images of any object laying on the bottom. The high resolution of the print-out, at 203 dots per inch, is three times that of color monitor displays. An optional computer
hardware/software package is also available. The image is
displayed on a monitor as shown below. See the Order Page for
more detail of this option.
