PDRT-WBL 83/200 kHz Pod-Style depth sounder w/ Remote Temp Sensor

The NAVICO PDRT-WBL transducer is a 'pod'-style transducer designed to provide accurate depth and water temperature readings. It uses dual frequencies of 83 kHz and 200 kHz for versatile detection.

This transducer operates on two main frequencies: 83 kHz and 200 kHz. It uses Medium/High CHIRP technology.

The NAVICO PDRT-WBL transducer can reach a maximum depth of 304 meters (1000 feet), particularly effective at the 200 kHz frequency.

For accurate and reliable readings, the recommended maximum boat speed is 60 knots (approximately 70 mph).

Yes, this transducer is equipped with a remote temperature sensor that provides accurate water temperature data, combining depth and temperature information.

The transducer is supplied with a 6-metre (approximately 20-foot) cable.

The weight of the PDRT-WBL transducer with its cable is approximately 0.18 kg (0.39 lbs).

The transducer can operate within a temperature range of 0°C to +50°C (32°F to +122°F). For storage, the range is -30°C to +70°C (-22°F to +158°F).

The transducer has a beam width of 52° at 83 kHz for deep-water penetration and 22° at 200 kHz for detailed resolution in shallower waters.

The PDRT-WBL transducer is fitted with a blue connector, typical of Navico-compatible equipment.

The depth sounder housing is made of plastic, in a compact and robust 'pod' style.

This transducer is versatile and can be installed in two main ways:

In through-hull installation without drilling (shoot-thru-hull). On a trolling motor.

No, one of the advantages of this transducer is that it is designed for through-hull installations without drilling (shoot-thru-hull), which greatly simplifies the process for certain types of hulls.

Hull-penetrating installation without drilling cannot be performed on wooden hulls. It is generally more suitable for fiberglass hulls.

The best location to install the depth sounder is usually near the centerline of the boat. For V-shaped hulls, it is recommended to install it at a maximum deadrise angle of 10°.

Yes, it is important to avoid mounting the depth sounder near trim tabs to ensure optimal performance and accurate readings.

For a through-hull installation without drilling, the transducer is typically secured using a two-part epoxy adhesive, which provides a strong and watertight bond.

Yes, with its pod-style plastic housing, this transducer is ideal for fiberglass hulls, especially for through-hull installations without drilling.

Yes, the NAVICO PDRT-WBL transducer is designed to be suitable for installations on trolling motors, offering flexibility for different types of boats and uses.
