Low-Cost Dual-Frequency
This low-cost “blister-type” transducer combines two popular
fishfinding frequencies in one housing. Its design is easier
and less costly to install than magneto-restrictive transducers
requiring steel tanks. The dual-frequency 28 kHz and 200 kHz
models offer high and low-frequencies for species specific
fishfinding. The single-frequency 38 kHz model features a
highly-effective, thirteen-element array that has excellent,
deep-water, fishfinding performance.

Options
•Temperature sensor
Features
•Impedance to customer specifications using matching transformer
1 - 1.2 kW
Applications
•Commercial fishing vessels
•Shallow to deep-water fishfinding
•Low-ringing, low-sidelobe, 28 kHz array allows
fishermen to see bottom structure clearly and to easily discriminate between bottom structure and target fish
•Narrow-beam, low-ringing, 200 kHz ceramic provides clear bottom detail and can detect small bait fish
•Fairing vertically orients sound beams for stronger
return echoes resulting in optimal sounder
performance
•Stuffing tubes are available to form a watertight conduit for cable routing and are available in a
variety of materials to match all hull types
•Can be mounted as an in-hull in a fiberglass hull for precise echosounding—even at speeds over 20 knots (23 MPH)
•Fairing is easy-to-cut and will not swell or rot
•Streamlined shape minimizes drag
•All mounting hardware included
•Seamless, SEALCAST™, urethane housing for long life underwater
