TRANSDUCER
Simrad ES 120-7F
120 kHz Split-beam transducer
(855-164135 Rev.C)
Introduction
The ES120-7F is a split-beam transducer with 76
piezo-ceramic elements distributed over four quadrants. The unit may also be used as a single-beam
transducer. This is accomplished by coupling (in parallel) the four quadrants into two sets and connecting
the resulting pair in series. The specications below
are valid when the transducer is wired as a single-beam unit. The unit has a streamlined housing
for hull and towed foil mounting.
