Re: Stus-List substitution of depth transducers

Hi Fred, Thanks for the link. I think maybe I should get one of my Instrument mechanics to see if they can come up with a value for the thermistor. Otherwise I might just grab a few and do it on a trial basis. When it first started failing, years ago, I mentioned it at a C rendezvous and

This is the first one I’ve heard of that failed. Usually they’re very reliable. It’s just a thermistor potted in the transducer housing: http://www.airmartechnology.com/uploads/wiringdiagrams/91_636.pdf No info on the value

Russ, Delighted to hear that my language apparently puts me in the “young” category. I turned 70 this summer - used to build ham radio transmitters with my father using vacuum tubes. I do have an old handheld weather radio that tunes in AM, but the input from this list has convinced me to

Re: Stus-List substitution of depth transducers

If you skip the part where I wasted a lot of time and effort when I tried to remove the old transducer with a hammer, and go straight to the holesaw method, it is a 5 minute job and really not that hard. I would not bother trying to use the very old transducer. Bill Bina On 11/25/2015 10:27

Re: Stus-List substitution of depth transducers

Eric — the old transducer may very well work with the new head; you may lose readings at depths beyond 150 feet if your older transducer won’t do 50 kHz. But as another lister pointed out, why not just have a nice new transducer to go along with your shiny new i50/i60 instruments? Once you get

I am replacing depth, speed and wind instruments on Cat’s Paw with i50 and i60 Raymarine instruments. As noted in an ongoing thread, it is difficult to remove the old depth transducer, so is it possible to use the old one with the new Raymarine display? The old transducer is for a Signet
