SIMRAD CATCH MONITORING SYSTEMS SIMRAD developed and introduced the first wireless catch sensor more than 40 years ago. Not very late, it also introduced the 3rd wire systems. Since then, SIMRAD manufactures, and keeps developing, a wide range of catch monitoring systems so that the skipper can have full control of the catch process, while enhancing efficiency and respecting the environment. Wireless sensors are developed for fitting in all different fishing scenarios. For example, in bottom trawling, whether it is single, twin, triple or more, wireless sensors are placed on the gear and...

NEW GENERATION SENSOR RECEIVERS In the latest years, the fast evolution of wideband electronics has been met by Simrad's engineers as an opportunity to develop two new sensor receivers that can cover almost all fishing operating scenarios because they can receive multiple signals from many sensors. The new Sensor Receivers can receive data from all the PX family catch sensors including the TrawlEye. SR70 RECEIVER UNIT This is a versatile and powerful sensor receiver that can have up to four separate hydrophones connected simultaneously. Four connected hydrophones ensure a stable...

THE PX FAMILY, SENSORS MADE TO WORK! The PX sensor family comes in two different bodies and 8 different HW configurations. At the same time, each sensor can read up to 5 different measurements. A standard sensor will have 2 data readings and the user can purchase a license for up to 3 additional functions. All available functions can be user programmable according to the matrix below using the TV80 software. The complete PX sensor family is depth rated to 1000m including the depth sensors and seine sounders. Previous PX Multisensor can be easily upgraded to the new PX Multisensor MK2. The...

WIRELESS ECHOSOUNDER FOR PELAGIC AND BOTTOM TRAWLS The Simrad PX TrawlEye provides a real time echogram from the trawl via a wireless link. In addition to the high resolution echogram the PX TrawlEye sends up the battery status so you can plan when to charge the sensor. To ensure long range communication and optimum alignment between sensor and vessel the PX TrawlEye also sends up roll and pitch information, enabling you to detect if you have a bad alignment and/ or if the TrawlEye was tangled in a mesh or similar while shooting your trawl. The TrawlEye can be received through Simrad...

With the introduction of multifunction catch monitoring sensors, the challenge is how to show the information in a friendly way for the skipper, who wants to receive the relevant information in a quick look on the screen. The TV80 is designed to fulfill this concept. The TV80 can work with a single or dual monitor configuration and can display information simultaneously from all existing Simrad Catch Monitoring Systems, ITI, PI, FS and SR. This feature provides an easy update path for Simrad customers, in spite of the system they are using or want to use. In addition to the data supplied by...

JTl SYSTEM SIMRAD ITI POSITIONING SYSTEM Knowing the geographical position of your trawl, doors or any underwater object is of general interest for any fisherman. With the Simrad ITI system, this is fully possible with high accuracy. The system will enable you to position several points by adding position sensors, for example on the headrope, each door or codend. The system uses split beam technology known by Simrad users since the mid 80’s and has been available as a compact sensor since the 90’s. By adding the ITI system to your existing Simrad Trawl Monitoring system, you will have all...

THE NEW TRAWL SONAR PLATFORM COMBINES THE BEST OF TWO WORLDS The new Simrad FS Trawl System provides the full picture of the trawl by utilizing the ultimate FS third wire system with integrated PI Sensors. This sophisticated solution enables the fisherman to have full control of any type of trawl fishery. The system provides real-time images from the trawl sonar head and the data from the PI Sensors to the bridge, thus maximizing the quality of the catch and increasing efficiency at sea. A major benefit of the 3rd wire integration with PI Sensors is to prevent loss of communication with the...

SIMRAD invented the “3":l wire” trawl sonar back in the early 80’s. Back then nobody could foresee the impact this has had to the pelagic and semi pelagic fishing industry. Imagine back then, nobody had a “3rd wire” winch and nobody had handled this type of equipment before, making the learning curve steep. But as with everything, if you see the benefit with something, you go the extra mile to be able to benefit from it. For the pelagic and semi pelagic industry the trawl sonar is so important that you will not go out fishing without it. Traditionally the trawl sonar has been a...

This picture shows Pollock in Alaska. Notice the trawl is actually touching bottom on starboard but on the echosounder it looks like the trawl is off the bottom. This is only truly possible with a multibeam trawl sonar. A traditional search light trawl sonar could lose this information as it takes too long time to draw the picture. This part is the 200 kHz down looking echosounder. The line above the bottom is the footrope of the trawl. It is easy to see fish escaping below the footrope. This picture shows Pollock in Alaska. Here the net is almost on the bottom and still the contour of the...
