Kongsberg Mesotech
Scanning Sonars and Altimeters
The 1171 Dual Transducer Sonar Head design provides
user selectable sonar frequency and allows the operator
to optimize resolution and image clarity for long and short
range applications
The 1171 Multi-Frequency Profiling Sonar Head design
provides user selectable sonar frequency and allows the
operator to optimize the profiling configuration for different
applications and environmental conditions.
1007 Altimeter
The 1007 Altimeters are precision underwater acoustic
instruments designed for long range and high accuracy.
The 1007 altimeter is ideally suited to positioning, berth-
ing, height above seabed, and below surface monitoring.
The 1007 digital altimeters are small, lightweight and de-
signed for deep ocean applications where dimensions and
weight are key equipment selection factors. Depending on

1171 Dual Transducer Imaging Sonar Head
The 1171 Domed Sonar Heads have been developed
for deep ocean applications and combine reduced size
and weight with high quality data. The transducers are
protected in oil-filled, pressure compensating domes. The
sonar telemetry is RS485 and RS232 compatible and is
automatically sensed and configured at start up to match
the telemetry link available. The sonar head operation is
configured and controlled using the MS1000 Scanning
Sonar Processor.
