Airmar B60 Thru-Hull Transducer 20 Tilt 9-Pin f/Navico xSonic

The B60 Thru-Hull Transducer with a 20° tilt is engineered for precision and performance, making it an ideal choice for marine enthusiasts using Navico xSonic systems. Its innovative Tilted Element™ technology ensures accurate depth readings by correcting for hull deadrise angles, providing reliable sonar performance whether you're cruising on a center-console or trailered boat.

Key Features

• Advanced Sensing Capabilities: Measures depth and provides fast-response water temperature readings for comprehensive marine monitoring.
• High Power Output: Equipped with a robust 600 W power rating to deliver strong and clear sonar signals.
• Dual-Frequency Operation:
  • 50 kHz with a wide 45° beamwidth, offering depth performance up to 353 m (1200').
  • 200 kHz with a focused 12° beamwidth, providing depth performance up to 206 m (700').
• Optimized for Various Vessels: Perfectly suited for both center-console and trailered boats, ensuring versatility across different marine applications.
• Low-Profile Design: The bronze housing extends only 5 mm (3/16") beyond the hull, minimizing impact on your boat’s hydrodynamics and running performance.
• Durable Construction: Made with bronze housing for use with fiberglass or wood hulls, with an alternative stainless steel (SS60) option available for all hull materials.

Innovative Tilted Element™ Technology

The Tilted Element™ feature sets the B60 apart by mounting the ceramic element at a precise 20° angle within the housing. This strategic tilt corrects for the hull's deadrise angle when installed nearly flush with the hull, ensuring the sonar beam is directed straight down. The result is enhanced echo returns and more accurate depth measurements, providing you with the reliable data you need for safe and enjoyable boating.
