Lowrance Simrad 136-02 Fishfinder Transducer P319-BL

The P319 is a 600W through-hull low-profile depth and temperature transducer with a plastic housing, that operates at 50kHz and 200kHz. It has a fixed (non-retractable) insert. The P319 is designed for installation only in the flat bottom of a boat. It does not have any built-in tilt for deadrise compensation.

Although most P319s are now made as a generic 'mix and match' (MM) transducer with a brand-specific adapter cable, this unit has a different internal circuitry and a permanent fixed 10M cable and cannot be used with MM adapters.

This version has a Lowrance 7-pin blue connector as used on many Lowrance fishfinders and sounders including the HDS series. Lowrance sells a depth-only version of this transducer as the model 136-02.

Lowrance fishfinders that take the older gray 7-pin connector can use this transducer, but the temperature function will not work.

Airmar Transducer Comparison

• P319, B117, B60, SS60 : 600W Good : Benchmark model for comparison
• B164, SS164 : 1kW Better : 6 times more sensitive at 50 kHz, 2 times more sensitive at 200 kHz
• SS264N : 1kW Best : 50 times more sensitive at 50 kHz, 13 times more sensitive at 200 kHz

The P319 is identical in performance to the B60 with a bronze housing (12/20 deg tilt), the B117 with a bronze housing (zero tilt), and the SS60 with a stainless steel housing (12/20 deg tilt).
