Description
The Type 8088 XSRS Carbon D ASV
is the next step in the evolution of
Sonardynes XSRS transceiver range,
designed to take the best ideas from
the type 8005 and 8018 XSRS units
and improve where possible.
An XSRS transceiver is an intelligent
acoustic device used to measure one
way slant range distances
underwater, the units are battery
powered and are mounted on the
streamer sections using industry
standard collars. They can also be
mounted on tail buoys. The XSRS
units communicate with the XSRS
controllers by means of the inductive
coils and communication circuit
within the streamers.
The Type 8088 is equipped with a
direct reading sound speed sensor.
This ‘time of Flight’ sensor provides
superior accuracy and ease of use
compared to the more traditional
CTD methods, particularly in areas
affected by fresh water and salt
water mixing.
The type 8088 offers superior
corrosion resistance, even in extreme
conditions, due to its carbon
composite housing and duplex
stainless steel construction. This
construction means that the unit has
a low in water weight, reducing the
need for floatation near the device.
The type 8088 is compatible with all
previous SIPS2 transceivers and as
such uses digital acoustic signals and
digital processing techniques to
enable it to transmit and receive
signals in the same event. In
addition, as with all SIPS2 units, it is
able to transmit and receive tone
burst signals for ranges in poor
acoustic environments.
With the option of using standard ‘D’
size Alkaline or Lithium cells the type
8088 XSRS provides users with a
low battery cost / long battery life
unit.
With the ability to upgrade from
previous versions of SIPS2 XSRS
transceivers and a lower purchase
price than its previous equivalent unit
the 8088 XSRS offers large savings
in both capital equipment and
operational costs.
