Detailed description

Designed for depth and temperature detection applications, the Navico PDT-WBL 83/200 kHz Pod-Style transducer is a dual-frequency transducer suitable for vessels up to 8 meters (25 feet). It provides reliable detection with its 83 kHz and 200 kHz frequencies, ensuring accurate coverage and resolution for fishing and navigation.

Sonar Performance and Technical Specifications

The PDT-WBL transducer delivers a transmission power of 300W (RMS) and can reach a maximum depth of 304 meters (1000 feet) at 200 kHz. Its beam widths are 52° at 83 kHz and 22° at 200 kHz, enabling detailed exploration of the seabed. It features a broadband ceramic element and a temperature sensor, measuring depth and water temperature simultaneously. The transducer is designed to operate up to a speed of 60 knots (70 mph).

Installation and Environment

This "pod-style" model offers versatile mounting options, including through-hull (shoot-thru-hull) mounting for fiberglass hulls or transom mounting for trolling motors. For through-hull mounting, it is recommended to install it near the boat’s centerline, with a maximum deadrise angle of 10° for V-hulls, while avoiding areas near trim tabs. It cannot be installed in through-hull mounting on wooden hulls. The transducer weighs 0.07 kg (without cable) and comes with a 3.9-meter (12.5-foot) cable featuring a 7-pin blue connector. It supports operating temperatures from 0°C to +50°C and storage temperatures from -30°C to +70°C.

« Navico PDT-WBL Fishfinder: Versatility and Precision for Small Boats »

The Navico PDT-WBL 83/200 kHz transducer is a versatile solution for recreational boaters equipping small to mid-sized vessels, typically up to 8 meters. Its main advantage lies in its flexible mounting options: a through-hull mount for fiberglass hulls, which does not require drilling the hull for external installation and delivers good performance at high speeds, or a trolling motor mount, ideal for anglers requiring high precision at low speeds. This adaptability makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, from occasional fishing trips to coastal navigation.

Integrating a temperature sensor directly into the transducer simplifies installation by reducing the number of cables and connections to the multifunction display or sounder module. Its dual-frequency capability (83/200 kHz) allows adjustment of detection based on conditions: 83 kHz for broader coverage in deep water and 200 kHz for finer details in shallower water. It is important to note that the through-hull mount is limited to fiberglass hulls and is not suitable for wooden hulls, where other transducer types would be more appropriate. Its compatibility with Navico systems such as SonarHub or Simrad NSS evo2 and NSS sport displays ensures seamless integration into an existing ecosystem.
