Echo sounding is a type of SONAR used to determine the depth of water by transmitting sound pulses into water. The time interval between emission and return of a pulse is recorded, which is used to determine the depth of water along with the speed of sound in water at the time. This information is then typically used for navigation purposes or in order to obtain depths for charting purposes. Echo sounding can also refer to hydroacoustic "echo sounders" defined as active sound in water (sonar) used to study fish. Hydroacoustic assessments have traditionally employed mobile surveys from boats to evaluate fish biomass and spatial distributions. Conversely, fixed-location techniques use stationary transducers to monitor passing fish.

The word sounding is used for all types of depth measurements, including those that don't use sound, and is unrelated in origin to the word sound in the sense of noise or tones. Echo sounding is a more rapid method of measuring depth than the previous technique of lowering a sounding line until it touched bottom.

Echolotschwinger (150 khz Transducer) für altes NAVICO DS 160
Der Schwinger meines alten NAVICO DS 160 Echolots, den ich schon seit vielen Jahren zusammen mit einem NASA Clipper Gerät betreibe, hat seinen Geist aufgegeben. Da der NAVICO Schwinger in einem Adapter mit einem Aussenhautdurchbruch montiert war, würde die Umstellung auf den vorhandenen NASA Schwingers einen hoffentlich vermeidbaren Umbau erfordern.
http://forum.yacht.de/showthread.php?159501-Echolotschwinger...

Durch Bestimmung [...] der Höhe des Echolotschwingers über dem Ellipsoid [...] mit Hilfe von DGPS wird die Messung vom Seegang und vom Wasserstand unabhängig.
bsh.de
By determining the height of the transducer above the [...] 
ellipsoid by means of DGPS, measurements are no longer influenced 
by sea states and water levels.

Note: Linguee has a other entry for 'echo sounder' (without 'oscillator'), but this was the only first hit for a different term I found. Obviously rare, in any case not standardised.

"Echolotschwinger" "echo sounder"
Ungefähr 52 Ergebnisse (0,47 Sekunden)

Conclusion „transducer“ is more than twice times more frequent than „echo sounder“.
