Applied Acoustics’ range of acoustic positioning beacons is one of the most extensive available from any manufacturer and includes very small models, the Micro Beacons, for use in shallow water or where space is limited, up to the Seabed Beacons operating in deep, noisy or difficult environments.

The range offers a host of benefits for a multitude of marine positioning applications, with models specifically designed for challenging tasks during subsea operations. Each unit combines durability with ease of use.

For true versatility and cost-effectiveness, every beacon in the range has been designed to be immediately compatible with almost all industry standard tracking systems operating worldwide. Additionally most beacons can operate as a Transponder, an acoustic beacon which transmits on receipt of an acoustic interrogation pulse, a Responder, an electrically triggered acoustic beacon or a Pinger, which regularly transmits acoustic signals until the power supply is exhausted.

 

In addition to a particular features that allow the operator to create an optimum balance between power, battery life and physical characteristics, all medium frequency positioning beacons include Sigma spread spectrum protocols and most also have integrated MiQ data telemetry and Multi-Fire common interrogate capabilities.

 

Key Features
  • Robust, rugged construction
  • Easy selection of transmit and receive frequencies (channels)
  • High reputation for signal stability
  • Rigorously tested for distinguished endurance and performance
