Airmar - R599C-LM In Hull 3kW Low/Medium CHIRP Transducer

Superior Deep-Water Performance for Serious Anglers

The Airmar R599C-LM In-Hull CHIRP Transducer is a powerful solution for offshore fishing enthusiasts and professional mariners who require superior depth penetration and precision. Designed for deep-water performance, this transducer operates with low to medium CHIRP frequencies, providing high-resolution imaging and exceptional target separation. Whether you're targeting swordfish, tuna, or other deep-sea species, the R599C-LM delivers unmatched clarity and range.

Unlike traditional single-frequency transducers, the R599C-LM transmits across a broad frequency spectrum (28-60 kHz for low and 80-130 kHz for medium), delivering 5 to 10 times greater detail and resolution. With up to 3kW of power, it enables depth readings down to 10,000 feet (3,048 meters), making it ideal for professional fishing operations and deep-sea exploration.

Designed for in-hull installation, the transducer sits inside a specially designed mounting tank, eliminating the need to drill through the hull. This is particularly beneficial for trailered boats, multi-hull vessels, and solid fiberglass hulls, ensuring easy and secure placement while maintaining optimal signal transmission.

Advanced CHIRP Technology for Enhanced Target Detection

The Airmar R599C-LM features advanced CHIRP technology, which provides superior target resolution by operating across a wide frequency band. This allows the transducer to detect fish and underwater structures with remarkable clarity, distinguishing between bait schools, game fish, and the seafloor.

• Low Frequency (28-60 kHz): Optimized for deep-water penetration, covering depths up to 10,000 feet (3,048 meters) with a wide beam for greater coverage.
• Medium Frequency (80-130 kHz): Offers narrower beams for improved detail, covering depths up to 3,000 feet (914 meters).
• Broadband Coverage: With 82 kHz of total bandwidth, this transducer effectively covers popular fishing frequencies (38, 50, 88, and 107 kHz) plus everything in between.

Rugged Construction and Reliable In-Hull Installation

Built with durability in mind, the Airmar R599C-LM features a urethane transducer housing and a plastic mounting tank designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. This in-hull installation method ensures no drag, no risk of impact damage, and no hull penetration, making it an ideal choice for larger offshore vessels and high-speed boats.

The included mounting tank is tailored to match the boat's deadrise angle, ensuring the transducer is optimally aligned for peak performance.

Deliveries are handled by trusted carriers such as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. Estimated arrival times appear at checkout and depend on your location and the service you choose. These are estimates and can be affected by customs or carrier disruptions. A shipping confirmation with a tracking link is emailed when your order ships, and tracking may take up to 24 hours to update. You can also view tracking in your account.

Duties, taxes, and support
International customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, and fees charged by the destination country. If these charges are refused and a shipment returns to us, the carrier’s return cost and any re-entry customs fees will be deducted from the refund. If your order is late or you need help, contact cs@qualityboatparts.com and we will assist you.

Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.

Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.

To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
