200m Mini Altimeter

The 200m Mini Altimeter measures altitude above seafloor surfaces and underwater structures using ultrasonic sonar technology at selectable frequencies of 170 kHz or 200 kHz. This compact system achieves 99.4% accuracy at 5.8 meters with pressure ratings certified to 1,000 meters depth. Power consumption remains at 150 mA during 12-volt operation, making the unit suitable for energy-limited autonomous platforms. The complete kit contains a pressure-rated transducer with 39.4 cm cable assembly, matching bulkhead connector, transceiver board with mounting hardware, and wiring documentation.

Operating modes include full auto with variable sounding rates adjusting to depth changes, and manual configuration supporting up to 10 pings per second. Manual mode synchronizes ping rate with data output rate, producing one depth measurement per acoustic pulse. Full auto mode allows configurable data intervals from 0.1 to 25 seconds regardless of ping frequency. The system transmits NMEA 0183 serial protocol through RS232 or RS422 interface connections.. Lightweight construction and minimal form factor optimize installation in confined hull spaces.

Unmanned surface vessels conducting hydrographic surveys deploy the 200m Mini Altimeter for bottom-tracking during autonomous mapping missions. Navy autonomous underwater vehicles use these altimeters for terrain-following navigation in coastal survey operations. Marine research institutes install the system on remotely operated vehicles for underwater archaeology site documentation. Military mine countermeasure units integrate the altimeter into robotic platforms for seabed object detection and clearance verification.

Tactical Supply Pakistan supplies this altimeter system for underwater platform manufacturers and research organizations requiring precise depth-off-bottom measurements in compact configurations.

Does the altimeter require manual range gating adjustment when transitioning between shallow and deep water?
No, full auto mode automatically adjusts range gates and sounding intervals based on detected bottom distance, eliminating manual reconfiguration during depth transitions.
