The BL700 is a Survey Grade Single beam Echo sounder and is the best choice for shallow water bathymetric surveys up to 50 meters (168 ft) deep. We found that many of our buyers are mainly doing shallow surveys <30 ft in depth. We specifically designed this echo sounder as a low cost addition to our BathyCat survey catamaran. Now you can get a full Survey package for around $5000.00 This unit has an embedded transceiver with digital signal processing. Its “smart”. It adjusts power and gain as needed, it knows how deep it is and when it has bottom track. This is the most portable Survey Grade Echo sounder made today. The Bathylogger delivers the same accuracy as the best Survey transducers in the world 1cm +/- every 10 meters of depth. It can tackle saltwater or freshwater from lakes and rivers to Ports and Harbors. Perfect for Hydrographic Surveys, Bridge Scouring, Dredging Surveys, Mining Taleings ponds and more. Compatible with ALL manufacturers: Trimble, Leica, Topcon, Socchia , Carlson, Hemisphere, Hypack, Hydromagic, Quinsy and more. The BL700 Meets USACE Specs and is made in the USA.
Included is our Control Software for a PC. With this you can adjust the sound velocity and output ping rate 1 – 10 hz and other parameters. It also has a built in terminal program to view output data.
