TRANSDUCER CONE ANGLES
The sound waves from the transducer
spread
out into the water
in a
cone
shaped
beam. This looks much
like the beam from
a
flashlight.
The
angle
between the outside
edges
of the cone is the cone
angle.
Lowrance offers a choice
of transducers with either
an 8 or 20
degree
cone
angle.
The transducer
supplied
with the
X-25 has a 20
degree
cone
angle. Typically,
wide cone
angle
transducers
(20 degrees)
are
ideal for
operating
in shallow to medium
water
depths.
The 20
degree
cone
angle
allows
you
to see more of the
underwater world. In 15
feet of water the
20
degree
cone covers
an area about six feet across.
The 8
degree
transducer covers
only
about
a two foot circle.
The 20
degree
transducer is almost
always
the best to use
in
fresh
water,
the 8
degree mostly
in salt water.
In a
deep
water environ-
ment, (300
feet
-
fresh
water,
100 feet
-
salt
water)
the narrow
cone
angle
is more desirable. Since the
sound
energy
is concentrated
in a
smaller
area,
it can
penetrate
to much
deeper depths..
