WESMAR TCS 385 Trawl Sonar Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The TCS385 Trawl Sled Sonar Series is designed to enhance fishing efficiency by identifying dispersed and difficult-to-distinguish fish, even differentiating between species. The series includes models 385-500, 385-300, and 385-180, each tailored for different fishing needs and net sizes.
Model TCS385-500: This model operates at 500 kHz and is ideal for differentiating between species such as rockfish, cod, and flatfish. It provides detailed discrimination near the bottom, allowing captains to see dispersed fish. Features include a full-screen profile and down sounder mode, headrope sounder, and split-screen capabilities for simultaneous viewing.
Model TCS385-300: Operating at 300 kHz for profile and 200 kHz for down sounder, this model is suited for larger trawl nets, ensuring fish do not escape. It is popular for cod and mid-water trawl nets, offering greater distance viewing.
Model TCS385-180: Designed for smaller vessels with larger nets, this model operates at 180 kHz for profile and 110 kHz for down sounder. It provides long-range viewing, focusing on net painting and high-resolution footrope and bottom visibility.
Specifications: All models have a working depth of 1000m, support 1 to 6 Wesmar catch sensors, and provide depth measurement in meters, fathoms, or feet. They maintain a temperature accuracy of +0.1 degree Centigrade and weigh 26.5 lbs dry and 9.9 lbs wet.
Additional Features: The series includes a pressure sensor for headrope depth monitoring, a depth sounder for slope fishing, and data output for video sounder connection. The lightweight design (12 kg dry, 4.5 kg wet) is the lightest in the industry, and each sled comes with a cable guard carrying handle.
Interface and Controls: The operation screen displays critical towing information, including catch sensors, water temperature, trawl depth, voltage, roll and pitch, and tow time. The hand control enhances accessibility throughout the wheelhouse.
Power and Charging: The dual battery charger (Model dBC20) supports input voltage from 110 to 220 volts AC, with a constant charge current of 400 ma. It can charge one or two eggs simultaneously, with a full charge time of 5 hours.

Three multiple function trawl sleds...pick the color that fits your net and your fishing. TCS385-500 YELLOW: Amazing Detail: The TCS385-500 is ideal for differentiating between species of rock fish and for finding cod and and flat fish. Thanks to the extremely detailed discrimiation near the bottom, the 500 allows captains to see more dispersed fish and dispersed or low target strength fish coming into the net. Captains say they can even differentiate between fish species. In profile/split screen operates at 500 kHz; in down sounder at 500 kHz. TCS385-500 in full screen profile showing duskys...
