Sond SS60, kalasond ja vee temperatuuriandur 12° kaldenurgaga (ühendamiseks CP370)

The Raymarine SS60 is a transducer whose primary function is to detect the water depth beneath your vessel and measure water temperature. This data is then transmitted to your compatible navigation equipment.

The SS60 transducer is designed with a 12° angled element to compensate for the hull angle (the deadrise). This tilt ensures the depth sounder’s beam is directed perpendicular to the seabed, even on hulls with an inclination between 8° and 15°. This delivers optimal acoustic vertical performance and accurate readings.

A through-hull transducer like the SS60 offers several advantages:

It minimizes interference and turbulence, providing superior signal quality.It maintains high signal quality even at high speeds, which is often a weak point of transom-mount transducers.It is generally more robust and less prone to damage than transom-mount transducers.Its discreet installation contributes to the boat's aesthetics.

Yes, the Raymarine SS60 transducer integrates depth and water temperature detection functions. It provides both types of essential data for navigation and fishing.

The SS60 depth sounder is ideal for a wide range of boats, including rigid inflatables, motorboats, and cruising sailboats. It is specifically designed for hulls with a deadrise angle between 8° and 15°.

Due to its through-hull design and angled element, the SS60 transducer minimizes turbulence and interference from water flow beneath the hull, even when the boat is moving at high speed. This ensures superior signal quality for reliable depth and bottom structure readings.

Hull deadrise is the V-shaped angle of the hull at the transom. For the SS60 depth sounder, this angle is critical because the unit is specifically designed for hulls with a deadrise between 8° and 15°. The 12° tilt of the transducer element compensates for this angle to ensure the depth sounder's beam is always directed vertically toward the seabed, guaranteeing accurate readings.

Yes, the SS60 transducer is generally more performant than standard transom-mount transducers. It excels particularly in maintaining signal at high speeds and delivers better signal quality by minimizing interference and turbulence, thanks to its through-hull installation.

The SS60 depth sounder is a robust and precise choice for recreational boaters and inshore anglers. Transducers like the B260 or TM260 (often Airmar) are typically higher-power models, offering extreme depth performance and superior detection capabilities, often for offshore fishing. The SS60 stands out for its simpler installation compared to a transducer with an external fairing block, while still delivering excellent performance for its segment.

No, the Raymarine SS60 transducer measures water depth and temperature only. It does not include a speed sensor.

The purpose of the 12° angle compensation is to ensure that the fishfinder's beam is always oriented vertically toward the seabed. On V-hulls, the hull angle can deflect the beam. The 12° tilted element corrects this deflection, ensuring accurate and reliable depth readings even when the boat is underway.

Yes, due to its through-hull installation, the SS60 transducer is designed to be discreet once installed. Only a small part of the transducer is visible beneath the hull, minimizing the impact on the boat's aesthetics and hydrodynamics.

The SS60 transducer is specifically designed to connect to Raymarine's CP370 digital fishfinder module. This module is required for proper operation and integration with the navigation system.

When the SS60 transducer is paired with the CP370 digital sounder module, it can be used with Raymarine multifunction chartplotters, such as the Axiom or Element series. The CP370 acts as an interface between the transducer and the display.

No, the SS60 transducer cannot be connected directly to a Raymarine display. It is specifically designed to work with Raymarine’s CP370 digital sounder module, which is required to process the transducer’s signals before sending them to the display.

The Raymarine SS60 transducer is a through-hull transducer. This means it is installed by drilling a hole in the boat's hull for permanent mounting, with the transducer element protruding below the hull.

Yes, as a through-hull transducer, the SS60 requires drilling a hole in your boat's hull for installation. This method ensures optimal performance by minimizing interference.

The SS60 transducer, tilted at 12°, is specifically designed for hulls with a deadrise angle between 8° and 15°. Its angled element compensates for this angle to ensure optimal vertical acoustic performance.
