Description

[0002] The telescopic depth finder is a device for measuring water depth, which is usually installed on a ship or a measuring platform, and can adjust the depth of the depth finder probe as needed to make accurate measurements under different water depth conditions. The design of this depth finder allows its probe to extend and retract in the vertical direction, thus adapting to changing underwater environments and improving the accuracy of measurement data.
