Airmar TM258-MM DT XID Generic transducer

AIRMAR TM258-MM DT XID Generic Transducer | 1kW High-Performance Transom Mount

Unleash the full potential of your fishfinder with the AIRMAR TM258, a high-performance, 1 kW transom-mount transducer designed for the serious offshore angler. As a premier model in Airmar´s transom-mount lineup, which includes solutions with power ranges from 0.61 kW to 2.9 kW, the TM258 delivers the power and sensitivity needed to find fish and structure in deep water with unparalleled clarity. This transducer is the perfect upgrade for fishermen demanding professional-grade results without the need for a thru-hull installation.

The TM258’s exceptional performance stems from its advanced four-element ceramic array. This design provides a significant boost in sensitivity, resulting in clearer returns and superior target resolution compared to standard single-element transducers. You will see fish holding tight to the bottom and distinguish individual targets within schools of bait with remarkable precision. The streamlined shape of the housing is engineered to slice cleanly through the water, ensuring reliable bottom readings even when your vessel is cruising at high speeds.

Equipped with Airmar’s exclusive Transducer ID® (XID) technology, the TM258 simplifies setup and optimizes performance. Once connected to a compatible fishfinder, the XID feature automatically communicates the transducer´s specific configuration, allowing the sounder to perfectly calibrate its settings for the most accurate and effective sonar display right out of the box.

Key Benefits:

* Dominate Deep Water: With 1 kW of power, confidently mark fish and analyze bottom composition at significant depths, opening up new fishing grounds.
* Superior Target Separation: The narrow beam at 200 kHz provides crisp, high-resolution images, making it easy to separate game fish from bait balls and surrounding structure.
* Broad Coverage: The elliptical beam at 50 kHz offers wider coverage for searching large areas and detecting fish in the upper water column while maintaining excellent deep-water penetration.
* High-Speed Performance: The hydrodynamic design and rugged stainless-steel bracket ensure a clean flow of water over the transducer face, delivering clear bottom tracking at speed.
* Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Airmar’s Transducer ID® (XID) technology automates the setup process, ensuring your sounder is perfectly tuned for optimal performance without manual adjustments.
* Accurate Temperature Readings: The integrated, fast-response temperature sensor provides precise surface water temperature data, crucial for identifying thermal breaks where fish congregate.
