MODEL PHOD-1 HYDROPHONE
Sparton's PHOD-1 is an excellent solution for underwater applications requiring a small, rugged, omnidirectional, broadband hydrophone.
It is desiged to provide high quality performance and real world durability at an affordance price.
This preamplified hydrophone exhibits minimal change in response and directivity with temperature and hydrostatic pressure.
It has a wide range of applications and will easily interface with any signal analyzer or data recording system.
The PHOD-1 has desirable equivalent self noise figures, below Sea State 0. Its integrated voltage preamplifier has a low current draw,
making it an outstanding choice for applications where power budgets are low. There is also input voltage overload protection and a built-in
calibration feature to verify electrical system integrity before use.
This ruggedized hydrophone can withstand the toughest ocean conditions. It has successfully undergone a battery of extreme
environmental tests, including mechanical shock, thermal shock, and hydrostatic pressure cycling without preformance degradation.
The hydrophone is encapsulated in polyurethane specifically designed for maximum service life in water. It comes standard with an
integrated 10m underwater blocked, Kevlar reinforced, and protected by a durable long-life polyurethane jacket with molded-in
strain relief.
