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.
