Airmar B265C CHIRP Fishfinder Transducer B265C-LH

The B265C CHIRP thru-hull transducers with fairing have 8 broadband ceramic elements and a fast-response temperature sensor.

These revolutionary transducers continuously operate across a range of frequencies, rather than at the traditional dedicated frequencies of 50 kHz or 200 kHz. When transmitting at dedicated frequencies, targets that are smaller than the 50 kHz or 200 kHz sound wave may be undetected and therefore not shown on the fishfinder display. With CHIRP, the transmitted signal covers a wide band of frequencies, providing significant improvements in the ability to detect all targets in the water column. More bottom and water column area is covered as the beamwidth constantly changes from narrow to wide while the transducer is "chirped" across the specified band.

The beamwidth of the transducer signal is adjustable under the control of the sounder, and can range from 21-40 degrees in the low frequency range, 16-24 degrees in the medium range and 9-15 degrees in the high range.

CHIRP transducers are for use only with CHIRP-compliant sounders and fishfinders.

This '-LH' version of the transducer chirps from 40-75 kHz in the low range and 130-210 khz in the high range.
