B285HW:

Get more coverage under your boat with Airmar’s unique wide beam, high frequency Chirp-ready transducers. The high band operates across a frequency range of 150 to 250 kHz and has a fixed 25° beam for all frequencies. The high frequency band results in superior resolution. The constant wide beamwidth provides twice the coverage under the boat and excellent fish arches on the display compared to most high frequency narrow beam transducer options.

The included high-performance fairing improves broadband performance at speeds over 30 knots (34 MPH).

The high wide is the ideal choice for both inshore and pelagic fishing, where resolution and maximum coverage under the boat are essential down to 500'.

B285M:

Medium frequency delivers the right combination of coverage under the boat, extended depth range and the ability to produce clean and accurate target and structure returns in the mid to deeper water depths. Operating at a frequency range of 85 to 135 kHz, this transducer reveals fish at medium depths (up to 1,500') and delivers ultra-clear target resolution.

This model is also ideal for single channel sounder applications where operating in Chirp mode provides a greater opportunity to see what is in the water column. Simply create pre-sets for 85 kHz and 135 kHz to toggle between wide and narrow beams to adjust for scouting an area and then pinpointing structure.

The included high-performance fairing improves broadband performance at speeds over 30 knots (34 MPH).

The B285M transmits across the medium frequency 85 to 135 kHz band.
