It reaches down to 1,000 ft and refreshes the live view at a minimum of 10 frames per second, with a 120-degree by 8-degree beam that covers a wide slice of the water column.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt transmits at 800 watts and runs on 10 to 35 Vdc, which fits both 12V and 24V systems, with a 7.5A fuse in the kit. The stainless steel thru-hull body can be installed with a fairing block for hull deadrise angles up to 20 degrees or set into a dedicated hull pocket. It supports cored fiberglass, solid fiberglass, and metal hull installations when mounted with the appropriate isolation hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLive sonar imagery up to 1,000 ft below the surface, with a minimum refresh rate of 10 frames per second\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide 120-degree by 8-degree beam for covering more water under the keel in a single view\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e800-watt multi-beam phased-array sonar output for deep-water returns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSonar modes: LiveVü Down, traditional sonar, triple-beam traditional sonar, and RealVü 3D historical scanning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue Motion 3D returns follow the vessel course over ground for a more intuitive 3D history view\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage stabilization sensor helps keep the picture readable when the boat is moving in rough water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThru-hull mounting with fairing block support up to 20 degrees deadrise, plus dedicated pocket mounting support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarmin Marine Network connection, with an included adapter for older RJ45-style network ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in multiple configurations, depending on whether a fairing block is supplied with the transducer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe difference between the variants is the fairing block inclusion. Other installation, power, and network requirements are the same for the PS70 transducer itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02768-10: Fairing block not included. This configuration is typically used for dedicated hull pocket installs or builds where a matched fairing solution is already in place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e010-02768-00: Fairing block included. The fairing block is shaped to the hull angle (up to 20 degrees deadrise) so the transducer face sits aligned to the waterline.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PS70 connects to a compatible Garmin chartplotter over the Garmin Marine Network and also needs a dedicated DC power feed. The network lead uses a smaller connector style and includes an adapter for chartplotters that still use the older RJ45-style marine network port.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the electrical side, it accepts 10 to 35 Vdc input, which covers common 12V and 24V boats. Plan your power run with the included 7.5A fuse protection and keep the wiring route clear of high-heat areas and heavy-current bundles that can introduce interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and placement\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this is a thru-hull transducer, placement is about clean water flow. A spot that stays in non-turbulent water at speed matters more than being perfectly centered, so avoid mounting behind strakes, steps, fittings, intake or discharge ports, and anywhere that aerates the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe installation path can be either fairing-block or pocket mounting. Fairing-block installs cover hull deadrise angles up to 20 degrees and use an anti-rotation fastener to keep the transducer aligned. Pocket installs keep the outside profile cleaner, while still maintaining the correct forward alignment for the sonar beam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eSonar views and on-board use\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PS70 supports live down-looking views for watching bait and targets move, plus traditional sonar for arches and separation. Triple-beam traditional sonar shows port, starboard, and directly under the boat in a split view, and RealVü 3D historical scanning builds a 3D history of where the boat has been.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a strong fit for crews that fish deep water and want live feedback when setting up on marks, tracking bait pods, or staying on structure during offshore runs. It is also useful for boats that move through changing bottom quickly, where image stabilization helps keep the picture readable when conditions are not flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike any thru-hull sonar, performance depends on keeping the face clean. Regular wipe-downs with mild detergent and a soft cloth help prevent growth from building up and softening the returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf anti-fouling paint is used around the installation area, use a water-based type and avoid ketone-based coatings. When cleaning, avoid solvents and avoid pressure washing the transducer face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePS70 thru-hull transducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel thru-hull mounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork cable (40 ft) with network adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.5A fuse (kit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Non Included","offer_id":52270993277109,"sku":"QBP407761-V1","price":4899.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Included","offer_id":52270993309877,"sku":"QBP407761-V2","price":5099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1306733_qbp407761.webp?v=1771552334","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp407761","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
