Product Detail
The Airmar B175C-0-H is a high-performance CHIRP transducer with a Raymarine 11-Pin Mix-N-Match cable. Model B175C-0-H-11R. It serves as a depth and fast-response water-temperature sensor. It offers high CHIRP frequencies from 150 kHz to 210 kHz, with 80 kHz of total bandwidth from one transducer. Ideal for boats 8 m (25’) and above, it covers the popular 200 kHz fishing frequency and the whole bandwidth. Suitable for fiberglass or wood hulls. The transducer's ceramic elements are permanently tilted inside the housing to compensate for hull deadrise, aiming the beam straight down for maximum echo returns and no need for a fairing. Flush/tilted transducers can be mounted through a hole in fiberglass, metal, or wooden hulls. High frequencies provide greater detail, best for shallower water and anglers fishing less than 1500 feet deep. Additional cables are required: use A80328 for single transducers and A102146 for transducer pairs. Specifications include a deadrise of 0° to 7°, a urethane acoustic window, a 1 kW power rating at 1% duty cycle, a frequency range of 130 to 210 kHz - A (Broadband), a 10° to 6° beam, and a max depth of 1000ft. The box includes a B175C-0-H-MM transducer and an MMC-11R-HM Mix and Match cable.
Using this Airmar transducer is straightforward. First, figure out the type of hull on your boat. If it's fiberglass, metal, or wood, you can mount the flush/tilted transducer by drilling a hole in the hull and making sure the outside of the fitting sits flush against the exterior surface. For cable connections, use A80328 if you're using a single transducer and A102146 when using a pair. This will help your transducer work properly. When you're out on the water, keep in mind that this transducer is great for boats 8 meters or longer. It's especially useful in shallower waters, up to 1500 feet deep. The high - frequency setting will give you detailed images on your echosounder screen, which is awesome for anglers looking for small targets. As for maintenance, check the cable regularly for any signs of wear or damage. Make sure the acoustic window, which is made of urethane, is clean and free of debris. If you notice any problems with the transducer's performance, like a weak echo or inaccurate depth readings, it might be time to have it checked by a professional.
