It is the ST69 paddlewheel style sensor, so it reads boat speed and sea temperature at the stern without using a through-hull fitting. The sensor uses a 9 m cable and reads speed from 4 to 50 knots, which covers the normal operating range of many cruising, fishing, and performance boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an analog transducer for instrument displays rather than a standalone network sensor. That matters when you are replacing an older ST40 sensor or matching it to a compatible Raymarine instrument setup, because the mounting style, cable run, and instrument input all need to line up before you mount it on the transom and route the cable forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eST69 transom-mount paddlewheel sensor for speed and water temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with Raymarine ST40 systems and other compatible Raymarine analog instrument displays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9 m cable helps with runs from the transom to helm-mounted instruments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaddlewheel and housing sit close to the hull to help keep spray and drag down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in transom-angle adjustment helps when matching the sensor to the boat's stern angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaddlewheel can be removed for cleaning or replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic housing stands up well to impact and chemical exposure around the transom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sensor is used with Raymarine speed and bidata instrument displays that accept analog speed and temperature input, including ST40, i40 Speed, i40 Bidata, i50 Speed, and i50 Tridata. On i70 and i70s installations it is used through an iTC-5 converter, which is worth checking before ordering a direct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eTransom mounting makes sense on boats where you want speed and temperature data but do not want a fitting through the bottom of the hull. The bracket lets you set the sensor angle to suit the transom, and the cable can exit from the left side, right side, or top of the housing. That gives a little more freedom on sterns that already have ladders, trim tabs, drains, or trailer hardware nearby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike any paddlewheel sensor, it works best when the wheel spins freely and the sensing face stays clear of growth. Periodic cleaning is part of normal upkeep, especially on boats kept in saltwater. This sensor suits owners replacing an ST40 transducer, refitting a smaller instrument system, or adding basic speed and water temperature data at the helm without moving to a larger electronics package.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raymarine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52023807115445,"sku":"QBP801891","price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1330774_qbp801891.jpg?v=1780191992","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp801891","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
