Simrad EC150-3C
The Simrad EC150-3C is a 150 kHz phased-array transducer designed for current profiling applications. It offers 3 degrees beamwidth for accurate current profiling and 2.5 degrees beamwidth when applied as a split-beam echo sounder transducer. The EC150-3C housing includes the required transceiver circuitry.
The EC150-3C is delivered with a power supply unit and an open-ended cable. The transducer cable is 40 metres long. One end of the cable is connected to the transducer. The other end is terminated in the power supply.

Note
The EC150-3C is a dual purpose unit. It can be used either as an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) instrument to measure water current or as a split-beam echo sounder. It can not operate these two functions simultaneously.
