Third Party Accessories for Knudsen Echosounders
Below is a list of some of the accessories for the Knudsen 320 Series echosounders. To learn more about how GPS systems, survey software and other marine technology can interface to Knudsen Echosounders, please see our Hardware FAQ and Software FAQ.
R100
Hemisphere GPS
Consistent sub-meter performance with standard SBAS differential and Hemisphere GPS' exclusive COAST technology that maintains accuracy during temporary loss of differential signal. The status lights and menu system make the R100 series easy to monitor and configure.
Hypack Max
Hypack Inc.
HYPACK® MAX contains powerful tools that let you quickly design your survey and display your results. Its powerful drawing engine can display background files in DXF, DGN, TIF,
S-57, BSB raster, ARCS (Admiralty Raster Chart Service), and VPF files at any rotation and scale. Design tools allow you to quickly create planned lines. HYPACK® MAX automatically stores your information to a project directory, allowing you to set up new surveys or to quickly switch to an existing survey. All of this in the easy drag-and-drop environment of Windows® 98, 2000, XP or NT.

DMS-H Heave Sensor
Teledyne TSS
The DMS-H heave sensor has been developed to work with a wide range modern single beam echosounders. With their design allowing acceptance of correction data from the DMS-H, real time heave compensation of the sounder data is now acheievable. Providing heave data in analogue and digital format, the outputs of the DMS-H are easily configurable via a simple operator's menu.
Transducers
Knudsen Engineering has a wide range of both single and dual frequency
transducers available for purchase. Transducer selection is critical to the proper and optimal performance
of your echosounder. Knudsen Engineering can provide full systems including single and dual frequency
transducers as well as transducer arrays for maximum resolution at low frequencies. Some of our popular
transducers are in stock and available for immediate delivery. For custom transducers, please allow 4 - 8
weeks delivery time.
Custom transducers can also be provided to almost any frequency between 3.5 and 210 kHz or we can configure your system to work with a pre-existing transducer providing we have the proper transducer specifications. We also have custom transducer mounts to accommodate easy over-the-side installation.
