| Definition | A deep-tow sparker source sub-bottom profiler designed for use in high and ultra-high resolution sub-bottom surveys. It is designed to operate with industry standard coaxial tow cables up to 2000 m, so is often referred to as a DTS-2000 system. It features an eight-element hydrophone receiver towed behind the towfish. The DC power, communications and analogue seismic data are multiplexed from the towfish to a surface console which is also used to control and monitor the towfish. The DTS-500 has a depth rating of 500 m and a maximum power level of 300 J. It has a 15-25 cm resolution depending on the power output selected. It has a 500 Joule per second charge rate which allows a typical repetition rate of 150 Joule at 3 Hz. | ||
