Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical specifications for a range of hydrophones and preamplifiers offered by Teledyne Benthos, a company specializing in underwater acoustic equipment. The hydrophones are designed for various applications including seismic arrays, ocean bottom cables, and general-purpose use.
Hydrophones:
  • AQ-205: Features a wide band preamp with a frequency response from 1.7 Hz to 90 kHz, suitable for high reliability applications.
  • AQ-2000, AQ-1, AQ-16: Designed for seismic arrays and ocean bottom cables with a frequency response of 1 Hz to 10 kHz.
  • RAFOS-2, RAFOS-1: Suitable for bulkhead mount and instrument housings, also with a frequency response of 1 Hz to 10 kHz.
  • AQ-17, AQ-18: General-purpose preamplified hydrophones for scientific and noise monitoring applications, with frequency responses of 5 Hz to 10 kHz and 7 Hz to 10 kHz respectively.
  • AQ-25: A broadband preamplified hydrophone with a frequency response from 2 Hz to 90 kHz.
Preamplifiers:
  • AQ-201, AQ-202: High impedance voltage preamplifiers with a band pass of 5 Hz to 12 kHz, with AQ-202 being a lower noise version.
  • AQ-300, AQ-302: High impedance differential voltage preamplifiers with a band pass of 5 Hz to 14 kHz, with AQ-302 being a lower noise version.
Key Specifications:
  • Sensitivity, capacitance, and frequency response are critical parameters for hydrophones.
  • Gain, input impedance, and input referred noise are essential for preamplifiers.
  • Depth, length, diameter, and weight are provided for each model, indicating their physical dimensions and operational limits.
Contact Information: Teledyne Benthos is located at 49 Edgerton Drive, North Falmouth, MA, USA. Contact can be made via phone or email as provided in the document.
