Airmar also manufactures Ultrasonic WeatherStation Instruments, GPS & Heading Sensors for monitoring information on buoys and vessels. Airmar’s broadband transducers fea- ture a low Q and very good sensitivi- ty, enabling users to perform accurate surveys with higher resolution. These transducers can also be “chirped” with a longer pulse over a wide-fre- quency band. Users with adjustable frequency echosounders will be able to regulate the operating frequency and tailor the beamwidth to specific survey conditions. Best of all, the transducers are competitively priced. Applications include: Acoustic Doppler—For either vessel-mounted Doppler Speed Logs or ADCP appli- cations; Acoustic Backscatter—For targets large or small. Using a single transducer, or several transducers set at staggered frequencies, you can slide the operating frequency up and down a continuous -3dB band with little variation in acoustic intensity; Hydrographic Survey—When used at discrete frequencies, the low-ring- ing and narrow-beam characteristics of these transducers help produce the most accurate single-beam surveys at any water depth. In addition, these transducers can be used with elec- tronics that produce a chirp pulse. In 1982, AIRMAR was founded by owner and CEO, Steve Boucher. Twenty-seven years later the company has grown to a large-scale marine and industrial transducer supplier. Airmar is a leading manufacturer and OEM supplier of a wide range of Low Q, high power, broadband, custom, transducers ranging from 10kHz to 455mHz. These transducers are used widely for ocean & harbor survey & mapping by popular echosounder manufacturers like Odom, Knudsen, Simrad, Marport and others. Airmar offers transducers for broadband fre- quency operation, acoustic doppler, multi & split beam, sub-bottom pro- filing, and side-scan. Airmar also manufactures Ultrasonic WeatherStation Instruments, GPS & Heading Sensors and NMEA 0183 & 2000 Smart transducers for all com- mercial marine markets.
