Marine Components to show Daniamant's EchoPilot FLS 3D - 30 Degrees a breakthrough in forward-looking sonar technology to meet the needs of the pilot boat operators, exploration vessels, survey boats, crew transfer vessels, and tugs and utility vessels operating in shallow waters.
EchoPilot FLS 3D - 30 Degrees, is suitable for vessels from 29 and 60 ft and offers customers in the workboat sector the following benefits.
Scanning Capabilities

Average Forward Depth (AFD)
The first of its kind, is an innovative feature that calculates the average depth ahead of the vessel, providing more accurate information than traditional depth sounders that only measure directly beneath the boat.
High Depth-to-Range Ratio
Achieves a 20:1 depth-to-range ratio, allowing detection of obstacles 100 meters ahead in just 5 meters of water depth.
Real-Time Updates
The display refreshes every 1 to 1.5 seconds, ensuring up-to-date information on seabed terrain and potential hazards.
