BT-5-2 Booster Box for 5/10 kW transducers - Dual-frequency for 28F-38M, 50F-38, 28F-72, 5

The FURUNO BT-5-2 Booster Box is a dual-frequency module designed to boost the power of compatible fishfinder transducers. It optimizes the performance of your marine detection system.

Its primary function is to amplify the output power of depth sounders, particularly the FCV-1200L, from 3 kW up to a maximum of 5 kW, even when connected to 10 kW transducers. This improves detection range and deep-water penetration.

The BT-5-2 operates on two primary frequencies: 28.8 kHz and 50 kHz, providing versatility for various marine detection applications.

The BT-5-2 can amplify the output power up to a maximum of 5 kW. This power is achieved even with 10 kW transducers.

Yes, the FURUNO BT-5-2 module has IPX2 waterproofing. This means it is protected against water splashes.

The BT-5-2 is designed to operate within an ambient temperature range of -15°C to +55°C.

Yes, the BT-5-2 design complies with IEC 60945 for vibration resistance, ensuring robustness in a marine environment.

Using the BT-5-2 improves the signal-to-noise ratio of your fishfinder, increasing detection range and enhancing deep-water penetration.

The BT-5-2 Booster Box is compatible with the FCV-1200L fishfinder.

Yes, the BT-5-2 can be integrated with NavNet TZtouch3 series displays, but this requires pairing with the optional DI-FFAMP depth sounder amplifier.

The BT-5-2 supports 5 kW transducers, including the 28F-38M and 50F-38 models.

The BT-5-2 is compatible with 10 kW transducers, including the 28F-72 and 50F-70 models. However, the output power will be capped at 5 kW.

Yes, even if you use a 10 kW transducer (such as the 28F-72 or 50F-70 models), the maximum output power delivered by the BT-5-2 will be capped at 5 kW.

To connect the BT-5-2 to a NavNet TZtouch3 display, the optional DI-FFAMP depth sounder amplifier is required.

For optimal installation and to avoid interference, a minimum distance of 0.9 m is recommended from the compass as standard, and 0.5 m for the autopilot drive.

Yes, the BT-5-2 is designed to withstand a relative humidity of 95% at 40°C. The installation environment must meet these conditions for optimal operation.

Yes, the FURUNO BT-5-2 is a dual-frequency amplifier module, capable of operating on two distinct frequencies to adapt to different transducers and marine conditions.

The FCV-1200L fishfinder has an initial output power of 3 kW before optimization with the BT-5-2 Booster Box.

The BT-5-2 is designed to work with 5 kW transducers (such as the 28F-38M, 50F-38 models) and 10 kW transducers (such as the 28F-72, 50F-70 models), though the output is capped at 5 kW.

By amplifying the transducer power and improving the signal-to-noise ratio, the BT-5-2 enables better penetration of sound waves in water, which is crucial for deep detection.
