Product Detail
The Airmar B265C-LH is a top - notch bronze thru - hull transducer with a Raymarine 11 - Pin Mix - N - Match cable (Model: B265C - LH - 11R). It offers depth and fast - response water - temperature sensing. With 1 kW of power, it provides excellent deep - water performance. The low frequency ranges from 42 to 65 kHz, with a 25° to 16° beamwidth and a maximum depth of 914 m (3000'). The high frequency is from 130 to 210 kHz, with a 10° to 6° beamwidth and a maximum depth of 304 m (1000'). It has a total bandwidth of 103 kHz from one transducer, covering popular fishing frequencies like 50 and 200 kHz. The bronze housing with a high - performance fairing ensures optimal high - speed performance. It also features patented Xducer ID® technology. This transducer includes frequencies ideal for detecting various fish species such as Bluefin Tuna (60 kHz), squid (133 kHz), and cod (175 kHz), delivering great resolution, bottom discrimination, and bait and game - fish separation at all depths. The high - performance fairing enhances broadband performance at speeds over 30 knots (34 MPH). Specifications include a 9 m (30') cable - length, and it's a CHIRP - Ready Dual - Band transducer with depth and temperature functions. In the box, you'll get a B265C - LH - MM Transducer, a High Speed Fairing Block, a High Speed Fairing Block Bolt Kit, and an MMC - 11RLDB Cable.
Using the Airmar B265C - LH transducer is quite straightforward. First, make sure to mount it properly using the provided high - speed fairing block and bolt kit through the hull as per the mounting style instructions. Connect the 9 - meter cable to your compatible device with the Raymarine 11 - pin connection. Once it's installed and connected, turn on your device and start getting depth and water - temperature readings. When it comes to fishing, different frequencies are great for different fish. For example, if you're after Bluefin Tuna, use the 60 kHz frequency. As for maintenance, regularly check the cable for any signs of wear or damage. Keep the transducer clean, especially the part that is in contact with water. You can use a soft cloth to wipe it down. Also, make sure to store it in a dry place when not in use. If you're operating at high speeds (over 30 knots), the high - performance fairing will enhance the performance, but still be cautious and check for any vibrations or looseness during high - speed runs. And always refer to the manufacturer's manual for any specific details or if you encounter any problems.
