Standard Horizon Fishfinder Transducer SS164-20-BB

The SS164 is a 1kW through-hull low-profile depth and temperature transducer with a stainless steel housing, that operates at 50kHz and 200kHz. It has a fixed (non-retractable) insert. This transducer is ideal for fast, trailered, tournament, sport-fishing boats that cannot install an external fairing.

This item consists of the transducer with a cable ending with a Standard Horizon 8-pin connector as used on Standard Horizon FF520/525 and CPF180i/300i, Si-Tex ES502 and Cobra MF 2500 sounders.

The 20 deg tilt transducer is suitable for deadrise angles from 16 deg to 24 deg. The ceramic element is tilted inside the transducer to compensate for the boats deadrise (angle of the hull). This aims the beam directly at the bottom for accurate readings.
