Product Detail
The Airmar SS175C-0-L is a remarkable depth and fast - response water - temperature sensor. It features Low CHIRP technology with a Navico 9 - Pin connection. Model SS175C - 0 - L has a 1 kW power output. Its low frequency ranges from 40 kHz to 60 kHz, offering maximum depth performance up to 762 m (2500'), with a 32° to 21° beamwidth. This transducer shines in deep water, providing excellent coverage and tracking. With its high - performance, low - profile thru - hull housing, when installed correctly, it gives great resolution at speed. The stainless - steel housing is suitable for stepped, planing or displacement hulls made of fiberglass, wood or metal, and it's ideal for boats up to 11 m (36'). There's also a bronze housing (B175L) option for fiberglass and wood hulls. It comes with the exclusive Xducer ID® technology. Airmar's low - profile Chirp - ready transducers are a great fit for smaller boats like center consoles. The SS175L transducer offers up to 20 kHz of total bandwidth in one installation. Tilted element transducers have the ceramic element fixed at 20°, 12° or 0° angles in the housing. Installed almost flush to the hull, the tilted element ensures the beam points directly down, maximizing echo returns and giving more accurate depth readings. Specifications: Weight is 2.7 kg (6 lb), hull deadrise is up to 24°, acoustic window is urethane, hole size is 98 mm (3 - 7/8'), and it has seven internal broadband ceramic assemblies.
Using the Airmar SS175C - 0 - L transducer is straightforward. First, make sure to choose the right installation location on your boat. It's recommended for boats up to 11 m (36'). Drill a 98 mm (3 - 7/8') hole for installation. Install it almost flush to the hull. The transducer has a tilted ceramic element at 0°, 12°, or 20° to correct for hull deadrise and give accurate depth readings. When it comes to maintenance, keep the acoustic window (made of urethane) clean. You can use a mild cleaner to wipe it. Check the stainless - steel or bronze housing regularly for any signs of damage, especially if you're using it in rough waters. Avoid hitting the transducer against hard objects. If you notice any issues with depth or temperature readings, first check the connections and make sure the power supply is stable. Also, remember that this transducer is designed for specific frequency ranges, so don't try to force it to operate outside of those parameters. If you have a bronze housing model (B175L), take extra care in saltwater environments to prevent corrosion.
