FURUNO FCV 620 Echosounder

The FURUNO FCV-620 is a high performance, dual-frequency color digital echo sounder ( 50 and 200 kHz) with high transmission output power of 600 Watts. It has been designed for small fishing and recreational boats. FURUNO’ s 50 years of proven marine electronics technologies are concentrated into its compact waterproof unit. One of the main features of the FCV-620 is the digital filter, which helps adjust gain, STC and output power. Also, it suppresses main bang ( echoes just below transducer) . This employment of the new technology facilitates outstanding detection both in shallow and deep water. There are four basic operational modes: Single-Frequency ( 50 or 200 kHz) , Dual-Frequency, Zoom ( Marker Zoom/ Bottom Zoom/ Bottom-Lock) and NAV data. For operation simplicity, an Auto mode is also provided. There are two types of Auto Mode available: Cruising and Fishing. Fully utilizing the digital filtering technology finest echo picture for different purposes can constantly be obtained. When networked with a GPS sensor and speed sensor, the own ship position and own ship’ s speed can be confirmed on the screen. TLL of the favorite fishing spot can be registered to the networked GPS plotter for the next fishing trip. The FCV-620 employs a 5.6 " color LCD ( TFT) screen for vivid display and wide viewing angle. Its new unit design concept allows the display unit to swivel around when desktop mounted. Also, a quick release bracket makes flush mount installation quick and simple. GENERAL: Frequency : 50 and 200 kHz; Output Power: 600 W. DISPLAY: Display Type: 5.6 " color LCD.
