50/200-1T (RUBBER) — Depth Sounder 50-200-1T / 50/200kHz/1kW/10m Rubber

The full name of this transducer is FURUNO 50/200-1T (RUBBER) — Transducer 50-200-1T / 50/200kHz/1kW/10m Plastic. Its SKU is 00003835000.

This dual-frequency transducer operates at two distinct frequencies: 50 kHz and 200 kHz.

The nominal output power of the FURUNO 50/200-1T transducer is 1 kW.

This transducer is designed for in-hull installations, i.e., mounting in a tank or housing inside the boat's hull.

No, this transducer does not come with a connector, allowing installation customization to match existing equipment.

No, this transducer does not include a temperature sensor.

No, the FURUNO 50/200-1T transducer does not measure boat speed.

The transducer is supplied with a 10-metre cable.

The transducer measures 160x90 mm and has an oblong shape.

The transducer is made with a plastic body and has a rubber coating, specifically for its "in-hull" mounting type.

The 50 kHz frequency provides a wide 28-degree beam, suitable for deep-sea exploration and detecting large fish schools.

The 200 kHz frequency uses a narrower 8.5-degree beam, suitable for shallower waters and higher resolution.

No, the in-hull installation type (in a tank or pod) is designed for installation without drilling the boat's hull.

An "in-hull" installation, or tank/mount installation, means the transducer is mounted inside the boat's hull. It is typically placed in a reservoir filled with a liquid (such as glycerin or oil) that allows sound waves to pass through the hull without direct contact with the water.

This transducer is compatible with depth sounders or combos that support 1 kW power and 50/200 kHz frequencies. It is typically designed for use with Furuno equipment.

Yes, thanks to its dual frequencies (50 kHz for detecting large schools in deep water and 200 kHz for fine resolution in shallower waters), it is well suited for fish detection.

Yes, the 50 kHz frequency with its wide beam is specifically suited for deep-water exploration and locating large fish shoals.

The oblong shape of the transducer (160x90 mm) is a design feature that must be considered when preparing or adapting the hull or tank for an "in-hull" installation.

This depth sounder is particularly recommended for navigation and fishing requiring versatile detection, from exploring deep waters to high-resolution detection in shallower waters, and for installations where hull drilling is not desired.

The "in-hull" installation is generally optimal for solid fiberglass hulls without core. It is less effective, or even not recommended, for wooden, metal, or sandwich (core) hulls, as these materials can block or distort the acoustic signal, reducing the depth sounder's performance.
