System 5000 V2

The Klein 5000 V2 is a next-generation commercial side scan sonar system from Klein Marine Systems.

As a major upgrade to the original Klein 5000, the 5000 V2 introduces enhanced long-range coverage and consistent cross-track resolution. This technology refresh delivers advanced, dynamically focused, high-resolution side scan sonar imagery designed for both high-speed military surveys and commercial offshore operations.

• High-resolution high-speed survey: Advanced technology combined with advanced beam steering and dynamic focusing gives extremely sharp along track resolution at tow speeds up to 10 kts.
• 100% bottom coverage: Nadir gap filler sonar provides 100% bottom coverage at high resolution, reducing survey time and eliminating the need for repeat surveys.
• Integrated swath bathymetry: More accurately position seabed targets with co-registered advanced interferometric swath bathymetry sonar.
• New reconnaissance mode: Extends long range coverage to 250 meters per side without compromising along track resolution.

Unparalleled Sonar Performance in a Robust, Field-Proven System.

• Surface Mine Countermeasure (MCM) operations: Conduct efficient, high-resolution surveys with a robust, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) side scan sonar system, enabling rapid deployment and reliable performance in naval operations.

• Q-route surveys: Perform rapid, high-resolution surveys with 100% bottom coverage, using a system engineered to handle the challenges of unknown or uncharted waters.

• Geophysical surveys: Support offshore renewable energy projects with a sonar system that exceeds current industry specifications and provides future-ready performance for UXO detection and seafloor mapping.

• Hydrographic surveys: Execute reliable, high-resolution hydrographic surveys with a durable side scan sonar system, ensuring accuracy and consistency for coastal and offshore applications.
