Pole-mounted echosounders provide a simple and controlled method for collecting bathymetric data from boats, USVs and riverbank setups. The SSP-series uses a standard 5/8” survey-pole mount, enabling quick and precise sensor positioning.

Pole-mounted deployment is ideal for shallow-water hydrography, river cross-sections, ecological monitoring and portable survey kits. The SSP-series employs the same acoustic cores as our standard ECT/EU shallow and low-frequency echosounders:

FAQ

What are Pole-Mounted Echosounders designed for?

The SSP series is designed for portable and controlled bathymetric deployment using standard survey poles.

Typical applications include:

  • shallow-water bathymetric survey
  • river cross-section measurement
  • portable survey kits
  • USV / ASV integration
  • fixed riverbank or frame installations

Pole-mounted deployment provides a simple and precise method of positioning the transducer in the water.

What is the advantage of pole mounting?

Pole mounting offers several operational benefits:

  • precise transducer positioning below the hull/water surface
  • easy deployment and retrieval
  • ideal for temporary or portable setups
  • compatible with standard hydrographic survey poles
  • suitable for boats, USVs, and riverbank frames

What mounting interface is used?

All SSP models use a standard:

  • 5/8" survey-pole thread

This allows direct attachment to most professional hydrographic poles and mounting systems.

Which acoustic models are available?

Pole-mounted models are available across the Echologger shallow and low-frequency ranges:

Single Frequency

  • ECT 200SSP → 200 kHz
  • ECT 400SSP → 450 kHz

Dual Frequency (Shallow)

  • ECT D24SSP → 200 / 450 kHz
  • ECT D710SSP → 750 kHz / 1 MHz

Dual Frequency (Low Frequency)

  • ECT D052SSP → 50 / 200 kHz
  • ECT D032SSP → 30 / 200 kHz

USB-interface versions are also available as EUxxx SSP models.

Does pole mounting affect acoustic performance?

No. The SSP series uses the same acoustic cores as the corresponding standard ECT/EU models.

This means pole-mounted versions provide:

  • identical acoustic performance
  • identical beam characteristics
  • identical output/data formats

with only the mounting form factor changed.

Are USB versions available?

Yes. USB plug-and-play versions are available across the SSP range as:

  • EUxxx SSP

These are ideal for direct connection to:

  • laptops
  • tablets
  • embedded PCs / Raspberry Pi systems

Is the SSP series compatible with hydrographic software?

Yes. Pole-mounted echosounders support the same outputs as their base ECT/EU models and are compatible with major hydrographic software platforms including:

  • BeamWorX
  • HydroMagic
  • HYPACK
  • QPS Qinsy
  • EIVA NaviSuite
  • Trimble HydroPro / Trimble Access
  • Chesapeake SonarWiz
