Installation on a towed body
Transducers designed to withstand large water pressure are suited for use in towed bodies. A towed body used to hold the transducer is not provided by Kongsberg Maritime. Your organization is responsible for design and manufacture of such body.
The recommended installation method is through the hull plating hull using mounting ring. The installation arrangement on the towed body must be designed by the manufacturer of the towed body to fit its shape and characteristics.
