Ok I was going to ask if the type VII even had an echolot in real life, but The Google told me yes.

"U-574 (Type VIIC) was stated to use two kinds of echolots. The one used in depths up to 300 metres, graduated in metres, indicates directly on a depth gauge, is operated electrically, and can only be used vertically. The second echolot has no limit for depth; it operates acoustically, and is also capable of being used vertically."

From watchinig movies and reading books (Tom Clancy) I have learned that a modern submarine might ping a target to get its range, but the sub would in the same process reveal themselves to others listening in the area.

So I am wondering if both of the echolod mentioned here, would disclose the presence of the submarine to others when used to get the depth under keel value.
