hello, I'm thinking of buying a dff1-uhd with an airmar b265lh, could someone tell me navigating at 7 knots, what is the maximum depth it can reach?
 
Lorentaza,

Thank you for your inquiry. That is a good question, the depth capability will be determined on the water conditions and the water flow of the transducer. Also the depth capability will be different if you are just looking to mark bottom vs. marking fish.

So, what is the size of the vessel, where will the transducer be mounted, what water conditions to you expect to use the equipment and is it just looking for bottom or looking for fish?

I'm looking for tuna on the surface but I need to know at what depth the bottom loses I had that transducer with simrad evo 3 mounted on another ship and I lost it at 1100 meters in the case of furuno is the same?
 
Good afternoon Lorentaza,

Thank you for the clarification on your use. The DFF1-UHD is a Chirp Network sounder designed to interface with the NN3D, TZT, and TZT2 MFD's. The DFF1-UHD was not designed to be used as a bottom machine for really deep depths, 1100m is too deep for this product. It can be used to find Tuna fish for your intended use with the right transducer but I do not believe it will work to find bottom at 1100m. For that application I would recommend a different network fish finder like the DFF3. The DFF3 is a non-chirp network sounder that has the ability to use lower frequency and higher output power transducers (up to 3kw) which is a good combination to find bottom in deep water. For your application I would look at 2 or 3 kw transducers with a lower frequency range, like 28 or 38 kHz.


Kind Regards,
