Period
This artifact was likely used between 1970 and 1980 depending on exact time of manufacturing.
Canada
Chester Beachell was a Senior Research Officer, Technical Research Division at the National Film Board from 1951 to 1980. He participated in many projects documenting research expeditions for the NFB. Beachell wrote that “the presence of all this sound in the ‘silent world’ convinced him that he should design and build high quality hydrophones, and a recorder, which could be carried by a diver”. He designed his first experimental hydrophone in November 1970 following a request from Bané Jovanovic, the director of NFB film The Sea. He continued to develop improved hydrophone technology, resulting in underwater recordings that were used in a number of films produced by the National Film Board of Canada. Chester Beachell était le chercheur senior au Technical Research Division aux National Film Board entre 1951 et 1980. Il a participé dans plusieurs projets pour documenter de la recherche durant des expéditions avec le NFB. Beachell a écrit que la présence de tout ce bruit dans un monde silencieux la convaincu qu'il devait construire un hydrophone de grandes qualités ainsi qu'un enregistreur qui pouvait être utilisé par un plongeur. Son premier hydrophone a été construit en 1970 grâce à une demande de Bané Kovanovic pour le film: The Sea qui a été produit par NFB. Il a continué à développer a et améliorer la technologie de l'hydrophone et a pu capturer de nombreuseux enregistrements qui ont fini par être utilisé dans plusieurs films produit par le NFB.
Function
This hydrophone part collection was possibly used as replacement parts for Chester Beachell's Hydrophone number 19. Cette collection de pièces a possiblement été utiliser pour remplacer plusieurs éléments sur l’Hydrophone numéro 19 créé par Chester Beachell.
Technical
Early hydrophones were improved for military use, primarily for the purpose of locating submarines and icebergs. Hydrophone arrays, or large groups of hydrophones positioned thousands of miles apart, were also used for navigational purposes and in military tracking and contained pre-amplifiers to limit noise contamination. In addition to military purposes, hydrophones today are used to study marine life and assist in undersea conservation effort. The ordinary elastic bands, bimorph crystal, and protective grill are indicative of Beachell’s early work and can be seen when looking at Hydrophone No. 19. It is likely made out of “hard duraluminum” which allowed Beachell’s hydrophones to withstand pressures of at least 45atm, a depth of 1500ft and was likely coated in Verithane to protect the silver coating from the salt water. Les premiers hydrophones étaient améliorés pour le militaire et était favorisé pour localiser les sous-marins et les glaciers. Des hydrophones séparent intermittent pouvait aussi être utilisé pour naviguer l'océan pour le militaire et en utilisant des pré amplificateurs ils pouvaient aussi limiter la contamination du bruit enregistrer. Cette technologie était aussi utilisée pour étudier la vie marine et aider avec l'effort de la conservation sous l'eau. Les élastiques normaux ainsi que le cristal bimorphe et la grille protectrice sont indicatives des premiers hydrophones de Beachell et ils sont visibles quand nous regardons Hydrophone No. 19. L'objet est probablement construit avec du duraluminum qui permettait à l'hydrophone de résister à des pressions de 45atm ou une profondeur de 1500 pieds et il était probablement recouvert avec de la véritane pour protéger l'argenture de l'eau salée.
