Flush-Mounting Hydrophone
BII7110 Flush-Mounting Hydrophone
BII7110 series hydrophones mount through a hole or counterbore hole
cut in the housing of underwater instruments, apparatus, vehicles
(or towed streamlined body), pipes, or the wall of swimming pools. The
flush-mounting design of these transducers minimizes surface
discontinuity between the transducer and the mounting wall (or
hull), and allows for smooth water flow over the surfaces, resulting
in much lower induced acoustic noise
(hydrodynamic noise, flow noise), less drag/resistance, avoidance of
accidental collision and better acoustic performance for the
underwater devices in motion such as towed fish/bodies, ROV/AUV/UUV, robots, etc...
Low-profile flush installation protrudes only 4.75mm outside the
housing with streamlined flange.
The hydrophone can be mounted on different materials such as woods,
plastics, fiber glass, ceramics and metals. Marine sealants shall be
used for sealing, bedding and installation. The depth rating is
limited by the sealing performance of the cured marine sealants.
For low flow noise omnidirectional hydrophone, please refer to
BII7010 Low Flow Noise Hydrophone.
