CRT CR1A Hydrophone
CR1A hydrophone is an excellent multi-purpose hydrophone. Used for detection & recording of loud signals, listening & recording of quieter sounds like cetaceans, whale watching operations. CR1A hydrophone is not pre-amplified. CR1A matches perfectly with any of our DAQ modules. All CR1A hydrophones are individually spot calibrated at the factory.
