Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about the Z-Boat 1800MX, a remote habitat mapping survey boat equipped with advanced echosounder technology by BioSonics, Inc. It highlights the boat's capabilities in conducting precise and efficient marine surveys.
Performance Features: The Z-Boat 1800MX is designed for easy operation without special training, allowing access to shallow and hard-to-reach areas. It collects bathymetry, submerged vegetation, and substrate data, enhancing field campaign coverage. Real-time data visualization is possible through a shore laptop.
Visual Habitat Analysis: The package includes tools for mapping submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), bathymetry, and substrate classification. Results can be exported as CSV or KML files, and maps can be generated quickly, showing transect lines, bathymetry, and bottom types.
MX Echosounder Specifications: The echosounder features a transmit power of 105 Watts RMS, a pulse length of 0.4 ms, and a ping rate of 5 Hz. It offers a range resolution of 1.7 cm and operates at depths from 0.5 to 100 meters. Positional accuracy is within 3 meters, with a velocity accuracy of 0.1 knots RMS.
Z-Boat 1800 Specifications: The boat has a hull length of 180 cm, a width of 90 cm, and a weight of 30 kg. It supports a payload of 20 kg and is made from UV-resistant ABS material. The standard motor is a single brushed DC, with an option for a high-speed dual brushless 24V DC motor.
Remote and Performance: The remote control unit operates at 2.4 GHz FHSS with a range of 1500 meters. Data telemetry range exceeds 1000 meters. The typical survey speed is 3-4 knots, with a top speed of 4 knots for the standard motor and 10 knots for the high-speed motor. Battery endurance varies from 150 minutes for the standard setup to 240 minutes for the high-speed configuration.
