Airmar SS175C-0-HW 0d Tilt High Wide CHIRP with Si-Tex 8-Pin

The Airmar SS175C-0-HW 0d Tilt is a top - notch depth and fast - response water - temperature sensor. With 1 kW power and a max depth of 152 m (500'), it's a great choice for various fishing needs. It operates at a high frequency from 150 kHz to 250 kHz, offering a constant 25° beamwidth. This transducer provides 100 kHz of total bandwidth from one unit, covering the popular 200 kHz fishing frequency. The high frequency ensures excellent shallow - water performance, clear bottom details, and great fish target separation. Its wide beamwidth gives more coverage under the boat, helping you detect fish in the upper water column. The low - profile thru - hull housing, made of stainless steel, is suitable for fiberglass, wood, or metal hulls of boats up to 11 m (36'). It also comes in transom - mount, in - hull, and bronze housing models. Equipped with exclusive Xducer ID® technology, this transducer offers twice the coverage under the boat and better fish arches on the display compared to most high - frequency narrow - beam options. It's perfect for both inshore and pelagic fishing where good resolution and wide coverage are crucial down to 500 feet.

Using this Airmar transducer is easy. First, choose the right mounting option for your boat, whether it's thru - hull, transom - mount, or in - hull. Make sure to install it properly so that the tilt corrects for the hull deadrise and the ceramic element is horizontal for maximum echo returns. When using, turn on your fish - finding device that's compatible with the Si - Tex 8 - pin interface. You'll start getting depth and water - temperature readings right away. For best results, keep in mind that it's recommended for boats up to 11 m (36'). As for maintenance, clean the transducer regularly, especially after saltwater use. Use a soft cloth and mild cleaner to wipe the acoustic window made of urethane. Check the mounting regularly to ensure it's secure, and if you notice any damage to the stainless - steel housing, address it promptly.
