Autonomous Echosounder

The Echologger EA400 stands as a unique Autonomous Echosounder, tailored for underwater applications and distinguished by its practical scientific features. Its primary strength lies in collecting precise backscatter data along the entire water column, making it an invaluable tool for scientific studies.

Operating as a fully self-contained unit, the EA400 eliminates the need for external connections, enhancing its efficiency. Powered by three D-type alkaline batteries, it boasts extended operational life for long-term monitoring, exceeding a year based on ping rates. The device facilitates quick data retrieval through high-speed SD card downloading.

Applications include sediment monitoring, offering insights into sediment dynamics, and accurate backscatter data collection for scientific studies. Supporting altitude measurement, the EA400 proves versatile in varied applications. Wireless capabilities enable real-time bottom tracking, enhancing efficiency in underwater monitoring. It excels in monitoring wave height, tide variations, and is reliable for collecting ripple formation and migration rates.
