Advanced High-Wide CHIRP Technology for Superior Marine Coverage

The Airmar B285C-HW Thru-Hull Transducer is designed for serious anglers and marine professionals seeking exceptional underwater imaging. Featuring a high-wide CHIRP frequency range of 150-250 kHz, this transducer provides significantly improved target separation and enhanced fish detection. The constant 25° beamwidth ensures expansive coverage beneath the boat, doubling the area compared to standard high-frequency CHIRP transducers. This wide beam capability is particularly advantageous for locating fish in the upper water column and improving bottom structure clarity.

Equipped with Airmar’s exclusive Xducer ID® technology, the B285C-HW optimizes performance by automatically calibrating with compatible echosounders, ensuring accurate and reliable data transmission. The solid bronze housing enhances durability, making it an ideal choice for demanding marine environments.
