  • Page 11: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION System Overview The Echotrac E20 Singlebeam Echosounder is a dual or single-channel echosounder. The Echotrac E20 is addressing the need for a more compact echosounder for classical day-to-day hydrography on a vessel of opportunity or as a fixed installation on a survey boat. The system is portable, ruggedized, and watertight.

  • Page 12: Main Features

    INTRODUCTION Main Features Bottom detection: The Echotrac E20 provides the most reliable and robust bottom tracking available for precise and repeatable survey results. Its bottom tracking algorithms are based on our multibeam and singlebeam experience and relies on the proven technology from SeaBat, Echotrac, ParaSound, and HydroSweep sonars.
