The hull geometry of your vessel determines the most appropriate
transducers to use. You should fit transducers whose internal elements are
matched to within ±6° of your hull's deadrise angle, as detailed below:
• RV-300 RealVision™ 3D plastic 0° (for deadrise 0° to 6°) thru-hull all-in-one
transducer (Part number: A80470)
• RV-312P and RV-312S RealVision™ 3D plastic 12° (for deadrise 6° to 18°)
thru-hull split-pair transducers (System pack part number: T70320)
– RV-312P port transducer (Part number: A80471)
– RV-312S starboard transducer (Part number: A80472)
• RV-320P and RV-320S RealVision™ 3D plastic 20° (for deadrise 14° to 26°)
thru-hull split-pair transducers (System pack part number: T70321)
– RV-320P port transducer (Part number: A80473)
– RV-320S starboard transducer (Part number: A80474)
2.3 Product overview
The RV-3xx series of products are thru-hull mounted RealVision™ 3D sonar
transducers, capable of producing realistic 3D representations of the objects
below your vessel, to help you identify underwater structures and locate fish.
• Plastic construction provides robust and reliable operation.
• 4 sonar channels: DownVision™, SideVision™, CHIRP, and RealVision™ 3D
sonar technology combined in a single unit.
• Powerful and practical sonar operating ranges:
– CHIRP sonar = 0.6 M (2 ft) to 274 m (900 ft)
– DownVision™ = 0.6 M (2 ft) to 183 m (600 ft)
– SideVision™ = 0.6 M (2 ft) to 91 m (300 ft)
– RealVision™ 3D = 0.6 M (2 ft) to 91 m (300 ft)
• Built-in AHRS (Attitude and Heading Reference Sensor) helps to stabilize
the sonar imaging, automatically compensating for vessel motion.
• Cables included:
– RV-300: 8 m (26.2 ft) attached cable.
– RV-3xx(P/S): 2 m (6.5 ft) attached cable.
– An 8 m (26.2 ft) extension cable is provided with RV-3xx(P/S) split-pair
transducers (when supplied as a pair).

• Waterproof to IPx6 (surfaces exterior to hull, only), IPx7, IPx8.
2.4 Required additional components
This product forms part of a system of electronics and requires the following
additional components for full operation.
• For a list of RealVision™ 3D sonar-capable devices, refer to:
RealVision™ 3D products
• For longer cable runs, a transducer extension cable will also be required.
For a list of suitable cables, refer to:
Compatible RealVision™ 3D products
The transducer must be connected to a RealVision™ 3D sonar-capable
device. The following RealVision™ and RealVision™ Max 3D sonar-capable
products are compatible with the transducer.
