It works in the medium CHIRP band from 60 to 100 kHz and uses a wide beam pattern of 57 deg to 73 deg port to starboard, with a 16 deg average beam fore and aft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis transducer is built for fishing boats that need wide sonar coverage under the hull without using a large external fairing block. The low-profile thru-hull body sits close to the hull, while the tilted ceramic element helps aim the sonar beam downward when matched to the vessel deadrise. Depth tracking is rated down to 400 m, or 1,300 ft, and the 40 kHz total bandwidth gives anglers a useful medium-frequency view for fish targets and structure in mid-depth water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 kW CHIRP-ready single-band transducer for compatible Raymarine sonar systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium frequency range of 60 to 100 kHz for mid-depth fishing and target separation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide 57 deg to 73 deg port-starboard beam gives broad coverage below the boat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 deg tilted element helps compensate for hull deadrise and aim the beam vertically.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBronze thru-hull housing is specified for fiberglass or wood hulls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepth and fast-response water temperature sensing in one thru-hull fitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile mounting style supports clean water flow across the face when installed correctly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9 m, or 30 ft, cable length supports routing from the hull location to the sonar electronics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e95 mm, or 3-3\/4 in, hole size and 2.7 kg, or 6 lb, weight are key planning details for installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXducer ID technology helps compatible systems identify the connected transducer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe A80801 is a tilted-element thru-hull transducer, so the hull location, deadrise, and internal access all matter before drilling. The 20 deg tilt should be selected only where that angle matches the hull shape well enough to keep the sonar beam aimed downward. The listed maximum deadrise angle is 24 deg.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bronze housing is specified for fiberglass or wood hulls, including stepped, planing, and displacement hulls. It should not be treated as a universal fitting for metal hulls. The installation requires a 95 mm, or 3-3\/4 in, hole and enough inside clearance for the housing, nut, cable bend, and service access.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eSonar performance on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B175MW is a strong match for anglers who want broad coverage in the water column, especially when searching for pelagic fish or scanning a wider area beneath the boat. The medium-wide CHIRP band is useful when a narrow beam would miss targets off to the sides, while still giving enough detail for practical fish-finding work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this is a 1 kW transducer, it should be paired with sonar electronics that support a 1 kW CHIRP thru-hull transducer and the 60 to 100 kHz operating band. The 9 m cable should be routed away from sources of electrical noise and protected from sharp bends, standing water, and chafe along the run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter installation, keep the transducer face clean and free of heavy marine growth so the acoustic window can send and receive clean returns. Inspect the thru-hull area during haul-outs, confirm the fitting remains secure, and check the cable path for abrasion or strain before long fishing trips or offshore runs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raymarine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52715831886005,"sku":"QBP768136","price":1799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1340909_qbp768136.jpg?v=1781720244","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp768136","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
