Lowrance PD-N transducer

[Jan]

Hi,


Hmmm.. previous post seem to have dissapeared.


So here it is again.


I am looking for the datasheet of the Lowrance PD-N 192 kHz 8 degree transducer (Lowrance partnumber 90-42)


If you have data on this transducer could you place it on this forum or email/fax it to me ?


Faxnr: +31 (0)172 216620


(Please state if it is allowed to put the data on forum.)


Regards,

Not much info on the Lowrance web site. Try sending them an e-mail. I doubt there is much you'll get other than a 192 kHz pod style, 8 degree conical beam.


What the interest in such a narrow beam?

The narrower the beam the more detail I get.


I've send them an email... but no answer yet.

Jan,


Dan mentioned that with the 20 degree transducers he was able to get a beam pattern of approximately 19° vertical and 3° horizontal. I don not know how he determined this.


If this is correct, I would imagine that the pattern of an 8 degree transducer would be way too small for our applications.


Your thoughts?

I am writing a small basic program than will tell me what will be lit by transducer given the tranducer angle, transducer cone and height above ground.


I desperately need the datasheets to see how the soundcone is shaped... but allas.. lowrance has not replied yet.
