HydroBeam S2
Dual-channel sounding. Out of the box.
SatLab's dual-channel echo sounder — Windows 10, the SmartEcho 2.0 algorithm and SLHydro Sounder software in one complete, out-of-the-box bathymetry solution.
1 / 7






Sound velocity, corrected live.
The new transducer integrates a temperature sensor to calculate the real-time velocity of sound and correct the bathymetric data as you collect it — not back at the office.
SmartEcho 2.0 tracks the bottom.
Enhanced auto-tracking in rugged terrain and improved substrate identification for sediment and high-sand-content work — the two places lesser sounders lose the plot.
A workflow, not a puzzle.
SLHydro Sounder covers connection, acquisition, processing and export in one package, with corrections for attitude, PPK and delay — running on a Windows 10 IPC with 1 TB of storage that has passed salt spray, immersion and shock testing.
In detail.
The HydroBeam S2, SatLab’s latest dual-channel echo sounder, is designed to simplify your bathymetric surveys. Powered by Windows 10 and featuring the advanced SmartEcho 2.0 algorithm and full-featured SLHydro Sounder software, it offers a complete, out-of-the-box solution. With its built-in temperature sensor and durable IP66 housing, the HydroBeam S2 is the ultimate tool for efficient and reliable data collection.
Reliable Acquisition Unit
The S2 not only integrates a more powerful IPC with 1TB of storage memory, but also passes rigorous salt spray, water immersion, and shock resistance tests for superior durability and reliability, meeting IHO standards.
High Precision Transducer
New transducer has integrated temperature sensor to calculate real-time velocity of sound and correct the bathymetric data.
New SmartEcho 2.0 Algorithm
SmartEcho 2.0 algorithms not only enhance auto-tracking in rugged terrain, but also improve substrate identification for sediment and high sand content applications.
Enhanced SLHydro Sounder Software
SLHydro Sounder not only provides a complete workflow for connection, acquisition, processing, and export, but also offers a wide range of correction for attitude, PPK, delay etc.
