Overview
600 W The SS60 is a 600 W, 50/200 kHz transducer which integrates Airmar’s popular, Tilted Element ™ feature.
This Tilted Element transducer has the ceramic element fixed at a 20° or 12° angle within the housing. When the transducer is installed almost flush to the hull, the tilt of the element corrects for the hull deadrise. By orienting the beam directly down, it ensures maximum echo returns to the transducer and more accurate depth readings. Available in three Tilted Element models: Fixed 20° tilted version for 16 to 24° hull deadrise angles Fixed 12° tilted version for 8 to 15° hull deadrise angles

FAQs
How should the transducer be oriented during installation?
The arrow on the transducer cap should point toward the keel when installed.
How flush does the transducer sit when installed?
The design allows it to be installed nearly flush to the hull.
How is the correct tilted element model chosen based on hull deadrise?
Use the 20° model for hull deadrise angles from 16° to 24°, and the 12° model for 8° to 15°. Ensure the transducer tilt matches your hull angle.
