Echonautics BT70 Series
Angled Element Low Profile Bronze Transducers
CW | Dual Frequency 50/200kHz | 600W
CHIRP | Low or Medium Frequency | 300W
CHIRP | Medium or High Frequency | 600W

Transducer Overview
This popular series is available in both CW (Continuous Wave) dual frequency or a variety of high-performance CHIRP versions.
The low profile thru-hull design minimizes drag below the hull surface and provides superior fish finding and bottom tracking performance at high speeds.
This makes it an ideal transducer solution for high-performance center consoles, flybridge sportfishers, and other popular vessels.
With traditional 600W 50/200kHz dual frequency and Low/Medium/High Frequency CHIRP options, the BT70 Series is a versatile performer for many sportfishing vessels.
Compatible with major sonar brands, the full BT70 Series is offered in three tilt options: with 0°, 12°, and 18° angled elements to accommodate various hull deadrise angles up to 24° while delivering a focused vertical beam on targets below.
