Medium CHIRP is a practical choice when you want clear fish separation and bottom detail from shallow water into moderate depths, whether you are working reefs, wrecks, and ledges, or covering open water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bronze housing suits fiberglass and wood hulls where a flush thru-hull install is the cleanest option. Depth range depends heavily on hull construction, installation location, sea state, and target conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium CHIRP operation: 95 to 155 kHz with 300 W output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20° tilted element to keep the beam closer to straight down on hulls with deadrise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepth and water temperature sensing in one thru-hull fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze thru-hull housing suited to fiberglass and wood hull applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9-pin transducer connector with a 10 m cable for flexible routing to the display or sounder module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeam coverage that narrows across the band (about 26° to 17°) to balance area coverage and target separation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong bottom tracking when mounted in clean water flow and installed with correct angle and seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis transducer is intended for sonar systems that support medium-band CHIRP and accept a 9-pin transducer connection. Before ordering, confirm your sounder or multifunction display supports CHIRP and that the connector type matches your sonar port or adapter setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan the install location so the transducer face sits in solid, non-aerated water at speed. That placement matters as much as the transducer itself for consistent bottom lock and clean target returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThru-hull installs are typically set ahead of turbulence sources like steps, strakes, and intakes, and away from prop wash. The 20° tilt helps align the element without a fairing block, but the final mounting angle still needs to match the hull area where it is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry-fit the cable run before drilling so the 10 m lead reaches the sonar connection without hard bends, pinch points, or chafe. Use proper marine bedding and strain relief, and keep the connector protected from water during routing and service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe medium CHIRP range works well for coastal and near-offshore fishing where you want one thru-hull to cover mixed depths. You will see wider coverage at the lower end of the band and a tighter beam as frequency increases, which helps when you are watching fish tight to structure or separating targets near the bottom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the transducer face clean for consistent performance. In heavy growth areas, use a transducer-safe antifouling coating and avoid scraping or sanding that can damage the acoustic surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeriodically check the external housing, the inside nut, and the cable where it passes through bulkheads for tightness and chafe, especially after trailering or a hard season offshore.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simrad","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269719257269,"sku":"QBP011081","price":467.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1299825_qbp011081.jpg?v=1771545386","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp011081","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
