Description: The depth transducer comes with a through hull fitting. An optional within hull installation kit is available and can be used on plastic hulls.
- Measured value: depth
- Application domain: for boats
- Other characteristics: through-hull
Specifications:Model: A-B117-T
Weight: 1.4Kg
Applications:These sensors are essential elements of depth sounders, highly useful devices for sailing in shallow waters with rocky bottoms, channels with shifting sandbanks or in similar situations. They also can be used for finding fish or to determine the amount of chain to pay out based on the depth of the anchorage.
Technologies:The transducer bounces ultrasound signals off the seabed at regular intervals and measures the return time of the echo. Made of bronze or plastic, the device can be part of a through-hull fitting, mounted to the hull's exterior or at the stern. Some operate on several frequencies, permitting analysis of seabed layering, while broad- or multi-beam units simultaneously examine a wide swath of the bottom, often at significant depth.
