Airmar TM185C Transducer Medium CHIRP With Garmin 12-Pin

The Airmar TM185C is a top - notch transducer perfect for both offshore fishing and freshwater angling in shallow to mid - range depths. It comes with a depth and fast - response water - temperature sensor. With a 1 kW power, it can reach a maximum depth of 457 m (1,500'). Operating at a medium frequency from 85 to 135 kHz, it offers a total bandwidth of 50 kHz from a single transducer. This frequency range covers popular fishing frequencies like 88 and 107 kHz, delivering excellent performance in shallow to mid - depth waters, clear bottom details, and great fish - target separation. The transducer has a transom - mount design with a urethane housing and a stainless - steel bracket, suitable for outboard and I/O powered boats. Thru - hull (B285M, B175M) and in - hull (M135M) models are also available. It features the exclusive Xducer ID® technology. Weighing 4.16 kg (9.17 lb), it can accommodate transom angles from 3° to 21° and has a urethane acoustic window. The package includes TM185C - M - MM and MMC - 12G.

Using the Airmar TM185C transducer is straightforward. First, make sure your boat's transom angle is between 3° and 21°. Then, use the provided stainless - steel bracket to mount the transducer on the transom of your outboard or I/O powered boat. Connect it to your device using the Garmin 12 - pin connector. When you're out fishing, the transducer will start working automatically, showing you depth, water temperature, and detecting fish at medium depths down to 457 m (1,500'). As for maintenance, after each use, rinse the transducer with fresh water to remove any salt, dirt, or debris. Check the urethane acoustic window regularly for any signs of damage. If there are any issues, don't try to repair it yourself. Instead, contact the manufacturer. Also, store the transducer in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion.
