Hydrophones

Hydrophones, which operate much as undersea microphones, are underwater sensors used for geophysical exploration and sound detection. Teledyne Benthos is the world’s leading manufacturer of geophysical hydrophone products which are used extensively by the offshore oil and gas exploration industry. Teledyne Benthos hydrophones are renowned for their fidelity at extreme depths where they listen to acoustic sound waves generated by the reflections of an acoustic signal as it bounces off various geological layers beneath the ocean floor. Information gathered by hydrophones has proven invaluable in locating promising oil and gas mining sites. Teledyne Benthos hydrophone products are also used by the military to detect submarines and other vessels under, and on the surface of the ocean. The company also supplies hydrophones to research institutions where they are used for various purposes, such as listening to marine animals.
