DST800 Smart™ Sensor SST Thru-hull NMEA 0183
Part NumberDST800SS-0183
Depth, Speed, and Temperature
The DST800 is a Smart™ TRIDUCER® Multisensor that offers depth, speed, and temperature functions in one compact thru-hull housing. The low-profile, retractable sensor computes accurate depth, speed, and temperature data and sends it to any NMEA 0183 display. The wide, port-starboard, fan-shaped beam is able to find the bottom even when installed on a high-deadrise hull or a heeling sailboat.
Airmar's Smart Sensors have embedded microelectronics—the transducer element and signal processor are only millimeters apart. The signals from the sensors are processed right inside the housing itself. All that is needed to receive depth, speed, and temperature data is a single cable into a compatible network or display.
