• Requirements set• Examples verifying requirements• Results

KONGSBERG PROPRIETARY – See Statement of Proprietary Information

EM 2040, specification

• Wideband: 200-400 kHz

• Depth rating: 6000 m

• Operational modes: Deep, medium and inspection or 200, 300 and 400 kHz.

• Pulse length: 25µs – 12 ms(FM)User selectable or automatic

• Three transmit sectors, dual swath

• 1 or 2 receive transducer(s)

/ 3 / 9 Apr 2023

KONGSBERG PROPRIETARY – See Statement of Proprietary Information

Requirements set

• Sector transmission• Full motion compensation• Broadband transducer• Large band width – short pulse length• Near-field focusing • 6000 m depth rating• Low self-noise• Re-use of bottom detection algorithms• SIS, same topside SW as previous models• Support third party topside SW

/ 4 / 9 Apr 2023

Focusing enabled. Beamwidth is 0.4 deg.

Focusing disabled, Beamwidth is 5 deg. SL is 6 dB weaker

This shows the need for nearfield focusing:
