Raymarine 1kW 12° Tilted Element Transducer Product Description
Discover Superior Sonar Performance with Tilted Element Innovation
Imagine gliding through choppy waters on your trailered sportfishing boat, knowing your sonar delivers pinpoint accuracy without the hassle of bulky fairings or complex installations. The Raymarine B164 1kW 12° tilted element transducer transforms how anglers tackle inshore runs, blue-water pursuits, and deep-structure hunts. Crafted from durable bronze, this through-hull powerhouse operates at dual frequencies—50 kHz for sweeping wide-area scans and 200 kHz for razor-sharp high-resolution details—pushing depth readings to impressive levels without compromising beam focus.
What sets it apart? The genius of tilted element technology. By angling the ceramic inside the housing, it automatically corrects for your hull's deadrise, directing the primary beam straight downward for stronger echoes and reliable bottom tracking. No more guessing games with depth or weak signals on sloped hulls. Plus, it hugs the hull flush, minimizing drag for smoother rides and better fuel efficiency on fast boats.
Unlock Game-Changing Advantages for Serious Anglers
- Effortless Hull Compensation: Precision-engineered 12° tilt handles 8° to 15° deadrise angles, keeping your sonar beam perpendicular to the water floor for crystal-clear returns—even on stepped hulls common in tournament rigs.
- Flush-Mount Freedom: Protrudes just a fraction of an inch, perfect for boats that trailer frequently. Rollers and bunks won't scratch or snag, preserving your investment.
- Integrated Temperature Sensing: Track water temp changes in real-time to pinpoint bait balls and thermoclines, giving you the edge in species-specific targeting.
- Versatile Power Delivery: 1kW RMS output means robust performance across frequencies: expansive 22° coverage at 50 kHz for offshore scouting, tight 6° at 200 kHz for structure dissection.
- Drag-Free Design: Streamlined profile enhances water flow, reducing turbulence for quieter operation and truer boat speed data.
Simple Installation for Trailered and Tournament Boats
Engineered for vessels that demand speed and mobility, this 8-pin transducer with a generous 30-foot cable connects seamlessly to compatible Raymarine sounder modules. Skip the fairing block—drill, bed in marine sealant, and secure. Its low-profile bronze housing ensures a clean fit on hulls up to 500 meters deep, ideal for blue-water marathons. Pro tip: Align with your boat's keel line for optimal beam symmetry, and always purge air from the path during install to avoid false readings.
For fast-displacement hulls, this setup shines by eliminating airflow disruptions that plague traditional mounts, letting you push speeds without sonar blackout zones.
Excel in Every Fishing Scenario
From inshore trolling for snapper to blue-water swordfish hunts, the B164 delivers. Low-frequency mode excels at marking vast schools or wrecks over 1800 feet down, while high-frequency precision isolates individual fish amid kelp or coral. Tournament pros love how it cuts through debris for unambiguous bottom composition—sand, rock, or mud—at speeds that leave competitors in the foam.
Real-world edge: On trailered center consoles, it withstands ramp abuse while providing the depth resolution to hover over sweet spots without repositioning.
Keep It Performing Like New
Longevity starts with care. After every trip, rinse with fresh water to flush salt buildup. Inspect the face for marine growth—use a soft brush and eco-friendly cleaner. Winterize by filling the cable exit with non-toxic antifreeze. Store dry, and check O-rings annually for suppleness. This transducer's rugged build handles abuse, but proactive upkeep ensures decades of tournament-winning scans.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes tilted element technology special in this transducer?
Tilted element technology pre-angles the ceramic array inside the housing to match common hull deadrise angles, ensuring the sonar beam points directly downward without needing a custom fairing block. This delivers stronger signals and accurate depth on sloped hulls.
Which hull deadrise angles is the 12° version suited for?
It's optimized for boats with 8° to 15° deadrise, common in performance fishing hulls, providing flush mounting and perfect beam alignment without additional hardware.
What are the maximum depth capabilities?
At 50 kHz, it reaches up to 1800 feet for offshore exploration; 200 kHz handles 800 feet with finer detail, making it versatile for deep-water structure fishing up to 500 meters.
Does it measure water temperature?
Yes, it includes a built-in fast-response temperature sensor, helping anglers identify productive water layers and track changes during trolling or drifting.
Is it suitable for trailered tournament boats?
Absolutely—its ultra-low profile (less than 1/4 inch protrusion) withstands trailer bunks and rollers, ideal for fast boats that launch frequently without risking damage.
What frequencies does it support?
Dual-frequency operation at 50/200 kHz: wide beam for coverage at low freq, narrow for precision at high freq, powered by 1kW for maximum range and clarity.
Why choose through-hull over in-hull transducers?
Through-hull designs like this offer superior signal strength and no hull interference, essential for high-power applications and clear imaging in demanding conditions.
The B164 is a bronze, dual-frequency (50/200 Kilohertz), high performance through hull transducer with tilted element technology that compensates for the boat's hull dead rise, eliminating the need for a fairing block. The transducer mounts nearly flush to the boat's hull reducing drag and improving water flow. Built-in dead rise compensation keeps the main focus of the beam pointing straight down, resulting in strong echo returns and accurate depth readings. The B164 also has a built-in fast response water temperature sensor. The B164 is ideal for inshore and blue-water trolling. It is also suitable for deep-water bottom and structure fishing at depths up to 500 Meter.
