JRC JFP-185 Sonar

Description

Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): Operational Overview

The JRC JFP-185 Sonar is a type-approved commercial marine navigation system engineered for high-reliability deep-sea and offshore vessel operations. Compliant with international IMO/SOLAS and IEC standards, the unit is fully supplied, bench-tested, and supported worldwide by Seanav Marine from our Dubai Maritime City (DMC) technical facility.

The JRC JFP-185 Sonar is fitted with a wide band transducer, suitable with an output frequency in band wave form from 130 to 210 kHz. This can be selected in 0.1 kHz steps, depending on the fishing method and the particular target species at various depths. The flexibility of the these frequency selections also helps fishing vessels to operate at different frequencies from other vessels in surrounding waters.  The JFP-185 provides the ability to choose your own display, as well as a one-touch menu with a conveniently back lit set of keys that make operation extremely easy and useful in low light settings.
