SonoFDT is latest compact Flexural disk transducer made specially for underwater applications where weight and size is major concern. Due to its salient structure, and low weight it can be easy mounted on underwater vehicles or communication points. The strong silicon covering makes its best to be used in sea water for long period of time.
Flexural disc transducer
High Power Low Frequency Acoustic Source
Compact and small weight.
Horizontally omni-directional
Can be used as projector at depths of 10m or greater to ensure a sufficient amount of pressure is placed on the transducer due to the flexural motion.
Reliable, robust, high performance, low frequency transducers.
