Co.l.mar Italia has recently supplied the National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics (OGS) with a Sylence Acoustic Recorder, manufactured by RTsys, equipped with the SC0190 hydrophone. This advanced device is designed for underwater acoustic monitoring and is ideal for scientific and industrial applications.
Features of the SC0190 Hydrophone:
The Co.l.mar SC0190 hydrophone is an ultra-compact high-frequency device, designed to ensure high sensitivity and precision in recording underwater sounds. One of its peculiarities is the presence of a thread, which allows it to be screwed directly to the Sylence Acoustic Recorder, simplifying installation and improving system integration.
Advantages of the Sylence Acoustic Recorder with Hydrophone SC0190:
• High sensitivity: Ideal for precise recordings of marine acoustic signals.
• Compact and lightweight: Simplifies installation and transport.
• Optimized integration: The hydrophone screws directly onto the recorder, ensuring stability and ease of use.
• Reliability and durability: Designed to operate in harsh marine environments.
System Applications:
The combination of the Sylence Acoustic Recorder and the SC0190 hydrophone is perfect for several research and monitoring fields, including:
• Monitoring of marine fauna (e.g., detection of sounds emitted by cetaceans).
• Analysis of underwater noise pollution.
• Marine geophysics studies.
• Detection and tracking of underwater vehicles.
Thanks to this collaboration, OGS will be able to conduct advanced studies on marine acoustics, contributing to the understanding of underwater ecosystems and to the optimization of environmental conservation strategies.
