    EQ33-2 Echosounder operation Chapter 5-1 5. Echosounder operation The echosounder function of the EQ33-2 determines the distance between its transducer and underwater objects such as fish, lake bottom or sea bed. It does this by utilizing the fact that an ultrasonic wave transmitted through water travels at a nearly constant speed of 4800 feet (1500 meters) per second.

  • Page 65: Parts Of An Echosounder

    9.1 Parts of an echosounder An echosounder is composed of a display screen, processor, and transmitter/ receiver unit which in the case of the EQ33-2 are housed in one unit. Connected to this unit by a shielded cable is the transducer, which is mounted horizontally on the bottom of the hull or on the transom.

  • Page 66: How The Echosounder Works

    Chapter 9-2 EQ33-2 Principles of operation 9.2 How the echosounder works When the EQ33-2 is turned on, the processor begins to send electrical pulses to the transducer. The ceramic resonator in the transducer has a special property which enables it to change dimensions slightly when a varying voltage is applied.

  • Page 67: Transducer Beam Width

    EQ33-2 Principles of operation Chapter 9-3 9.3 Transducer beam width The transducer mounted to the hull of your vessel serves as both a ‘speaker’ when transmitting, and as a ‘microphone’ when the echosounder is receiv- ing. Similar to the way a flashlight focuses light, most of the sound from your transducer is focused downwards with a smaller amount going out to the sides.

  • Page 68: Effects Of The Vessel's Speed

    EQ33-2 Principles of operation 9.4 Effects of the vessel’s speed The presentation of fish on the EQ33-2 depends directly on the vessel’s speed, as well as on the depth of the fish. When the vessel is at rest, the echo traces will appear stretched and flattened.

    10 meters (32 feet) may be connected without a noticeable reduction of the performance. The cable must be of the same type as the standard cable. The EQ33-2 must be turned off while connecting/disconnecting the trans- ducer cable. The use of longer cable runs, while possible, always increases the likelihood of increased interference and decreased performance.
