Detailed description

The FURUNO 28BL-6HR depth sounder is a 2 kW transducer designed for deep-water fish detection. Operating at a frequency of 28 kHz, it is specifically suited to provide clear imaging of the seabed and fish schools, even at significant depths. Its construction in fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) ensures durability and corrosion resistance for demanding marine environments.

Performance and Technical Specifications

With a power output of 2 kW and a frequency of 28 kHz, the FURUNO 28BL-6HR depth sounder is optimized for offshore fishing. It features a directional beam of 22 x 32 degrees, enabling precise detection of underwater structures and targets. This BLT (Bolt-clamp Langevin Transducer) type transducer is designed for wide bandwidth, high acoustic efficiency, and a compact shock-resistant structure. Its weight is 6.5 kg and its dimensions are 120 mm x 150 mm x 123 mm.

Integration and Installation

The 28BL-6HR depth sounder is supplied with a 15-meter cable, providing flexibility for onboard installation. It is compatible with a range of Furuno echo sounders and fish finders, including the DI-FFAMP, DFF3-UHD, FCV1900, DFF3, FCV295, FCV1150, FCV-291/292, FCV-1100L/1200L/1500, and ETR-30N models. This compatibility ensures reliable system integration and interference suppression when paired with units such as the FCV-1100L or FCV-1200L, maintaining adequate sensitivity even with a frequency shift of ±10%.

Expert opinion

« Technical analysis of the FURUNO 28BL-6HR fishfinder: deep detection for professionals »

The FURUNO 28BL-6HR transducer is aimed at professional fishermen and demanding recreational sailors operating in deep waters. Its 28 kHz frequency is a major asset for detecting targets at great depths, where higher frequencies quickly lose effectiveness. The 2 kW power delivers a robust signal, essential for optimal water column penetration and clear echo returns, even in challenging conditions.

This transducer is designed for Furuno systems, ensuring compatibility and performance optimization with the brand’s fishfinders. While the 15 m cable is supplied without a connector, this provides flexibility for custom installation and adaptation to existing boat configurations. Its reinforced fiberglass plastic (FRP) construction ensures durability for external installations, resisting marine environment constraints.

This model is particularly relevant for fishing vessels targeting deep-water pelagic and demersal species, requiring detailed analysis of the seabed and water layers. Its ability to replace the older 28F-18 model makes it a viable upgrade option for existing Furuno systems, offering improved BLT transducer technology for better acoustic efficiency and a more compact structure. Professional installation is recommended, especially for connecting the cable without a connector, to ensure watertightness and optimal performance.
