Furuno 235DST-PSE Lp Nylon TH W/Retractable Insert Product Description
Plastic Thru-Hull, Digital Depth, Speed & Temperature Sensor (7-Pin)Furuno 235DST-PSE Through-Hull Transducer - Depth, Speed & Temperature
Professional Marine Transducer for Accurate Navigation Data
The Furuno 235DST-PSE is a precision-engineered through-hull transducer designed to deliver reliable depth, speed, and temperature measurements for professional and recreational marine applications. Built with proven Airmar P17 housing technology and featuring a retractable insert design, this 200-watt transducer provides exceptional accuracy and durability in challenging marine environments.
Advanced Multi-Function Performance
Triple-Function Sensing Technology
This sophisticated transducer combines three essential marine measurements in a single, reliable unit:
- Depth Sensing: Accurate bottom tracking using 235kHz sonar frequency
- Speed Through Water: Precise vessel speed measurement independent of GPS
- Water Temperature: ±1°C temperature accuracy for fishing and navigation applications
Retractable Insert Design
The innovative retractable insert system allows for easy maintenance and sensor replacement without hauling the vessel. This design significantly reduces service costs and downtime while ensuring continuous operation throughout the boating season.
Professional-Grade Construction
Built using the proven Airmar P17 housing design, this transducer delivers commercial-grade reliability with plastic construction that resists marine growth and corrosion. The durable design ensures consistent performance in saltwater and freshwater environments.
Technical Specifications
Installation & Compatibility
Through-Hull Installation
Designed for permanent through-hull installation, this transducer requires a precision-cut hull opening and proper sealing to ensure watertight integrity. The Airmar P17 housing design provides excellent hydrodynamic properties with minimal drag and turbulence.
Furuno Electronics Compatibility
The 7-pin Furuno connector ensures direct compatibility with Furuno fishfinders, chartplotters, and multi-function displays including:
- GP series GPS/chartplotters
- FCV series fishfinders
- TZtouch series MFDs
- NavNet series navigation systems
Professional Installation Requirements
- Certified marine electronics technician recommended
- Proper hull preparation and through-hull fitting required
- Appropriate sealants and backing plates necessary
- Cable routing through bilge areas with proper protection
Operational Advantages
Navigation Safety
Accurate depth readings help prevent grounding and enable safe navigation in shallow waters, while real-time speed through water data assists with fuel consumption calculations and passage planning.
Fishing Applications
Precise water temperature measurements are crucial for locating fish species and understanding water column conditions. The 235kHz frequency provides excellent bottom definition and structure identification.
Commercial Operation
Professional mariners rely on the 235DST-PSE for accurate speed logs required by maritime regulations and precise depth measurements for safe harbor approaches and anchoring operations.
Service & Maintenance
Retractable Insert Advantage
The retractable design allows for:
- In-water cleaning and inspection
- Easy transducer element replacement
- Reduced haul-out requirements
- Lower long-term maintenance costs
3-Year Limited Warranty
Furuno stands behind the 235DST-PSE with a comprehensive 3-year limited warranty, providing peace of mind for professional and recreational applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
What hull thickness can this transducer accommodate?
The Airmar P17 housing design accommodates standard fiberglass hull thicknesses typically found in recreational and light commercial vessels. Consult installation documentation for specific thickness requirements.
Can I use this transducer with non-Furuno electronics?
This transducer features a proprietary 7-pin Furuno connector. Adapter cables may be available for some third-party systems, but direct compatibility is optimized for Furuno equipment.
How often should the transducer be cleaned?
Regular cleaning depends on water conditions and vessel usage. The retractable insert allows for easy cleaning while the vessel remains in the water, typically recommended monthly in active use.
What's the difference between speed through water and GPS speed?
Speed through water measures actual vessel movement relative to the water mass, accounting for current effects. GPS speed shows ground speed. Both measurements are valuable for navigation and fuel efficiency calculations.
Is professional installation required?
Yes, through-hull installation requires precise hull cutting, proper sealing, and marine electrical connections. Professional installation ensures watertight integrity and optimal performance while maintaining vessel safety.
NMEA & Communication Standards
The 235DST-PSE outputs standard NMEA 0183 data sentences for depth (DBT, DPT), speed (VHW), and temperature (MTW), ensuring compatibility with modern marine electronics and navigation systems. Data integration supports comprehensive vessel monitoring and automated logging systems.
