Product Detail
The Airmar SS175C-0-HW is a top - notch depth and fast - response water - temperature sensor. It has a 1 kW power and can reach a maximum depth of 152 m (500'). Operating at a high frequency from 150 kHz to 250 kHz with a constant 25° beamwidth, it offers 100 kHz of total bandwidth from one transducer. This covers the popular 200 kHz fishing frequency and more. The high frequency ensures excellent shallow - water performance, detailed bottom views, and clear fish target separation. Its wide beamwidth gives more coverage under the boat to detect fish in the upper water column. With a low - profile thru - hull stainless - steel housing, it's suitable for fiberglass, wood, or metal stepped, planing, or displacement hulls up to 11 m (36'). It also comes in transom - mount, in - hull, and bronze housing models. It uses the exclusive Xducer ID® technology. Airmar's unique wide - beam, high - frequency Chirp - ready transducers provide double the coverage under the boat compared to most high - frequency narrow - beam options, showing excellent fish arches on the display. The tilted element (fixed at 0°) corrects for hull deadrise, ensuring maximum echo returns. Ideal for both inshore and pelagic fishing down to 500'. Specifications: Weight 2.7 kg (6 lb), hull deadrise up to 24°, acoustic window urethane, hole size 98 mm (3 - 7/8'), and one internal ceramic assembly.
Using the Airmar SS175C - 0 - HW is easy. First, make sure to install it according to the hull type. For boats up to 11 m (36'), this transducer will work great. When installing, ensure the hole size is 98 mm (3 - 7/8') and the acoustic window is made of urethane. The transducer is designed to correct for hull deadrise up to 24°, so it's important to get the installation angle right. Once installed, it will start providing depth and water - temperature information. To get the best results, especially for detecting fish in the upper water column, rely on its high - frequency and wide - beamwidth features. As for maintenance, keep the stainless - steel housing clean. If it's exposed to saltwater, rinse it with fresh water after each use. Check the internal ceramic assembly periodically to ensure it's in good condition. Also, don't forget that this transducer uses exclusive Xducer ID® technology, so make sure your system is compatible with it.
