Reson TC4033-1

The TC4033-1 is a transducer that can be used both as a projector and as a hydrophone. In the presented scenario, the case of the projector is described. For this purpose, the TC4033-1 is connected to the power amplifier MD MK1 via the 10m long cable. This is operated with 230V mains voltage and has an amplification factor of XdB. The transmit signal is fed in via a RCA input and can be activated via the enable switch. The input signal must not exceed an amplitude of 1Veff, otherwise non-linear distortion will occur. Additionally, the amplifier offers the option to monitor both the current and 1/10 of the voltage via the control connection at the front.

 

Sensitivity

A typical transmit sensitivity of 144 dB ±2 dB re 1μ Pa/V at 1m at 100 kHz with a linear bandwidth of 1 Hz to 80 kHz can be achieved. Further details and sensitivity curves can be found at the website of Teledyne Marine.
