Airmar Transducers

The story of Airmar began back in 1982 when the newly established company from New Hampshire introduced its first transom-mounted transducer for fishfinders. Today, Airmar is a global leader in designing and manufacturing ultrasonic transducers, sensors, and other equipment based on acoustic sensing technology. This family-owned American company has large production facilities in Milforda and a strong team of engineers, scientists, and technicians developing new products and cutting-edge solutions for various vessels including large fishing fleets. Many Airmar transducers are used in fishfinders by leading brands, with those supporting the most sophisticated CHIRP sonar technology (short for Compressed High-Intensity Radiated Pulse.)

So-called CHIRP-Ready transducers offered by Airmar operate at a wider range of frequencies than regular ones, which enables a CHIRP sonar to give a much clearer picture with a higher resolution. But actually, the use of Airmar transducers and sensors is not limited to fishing only. These devices are also widely used for hydrographic surveys, aquatic habitat assessment, weather monitoring, and other scientific and commercial purposes. Airmar sensors employ not only ultrasonic but also electromagnetic, piezocomposite, and other technologies providing unrivaled performance and full compliance with the latest industry standards.

Particularly, the company is known for its transducers for Doppler velocity logs utilized for sea navigation, GPS and heading sensors, acoustic deterrents, altimeters, and Airmar weather stations containing numerous sensors to measure a lot of parameters such as the wind direction and speed, air temperature, barometric pressure, pitch and roll, GPS position, etc. Besides, the company's assortment includes air-ranging transducers designed to provide a non-contact sensing function utilized for automation control on the factory conveyors, flow measurement, level and proximity defining, etc. A wide range of Airmar products is available in our online store, and you can fully rely on the company's knowledge, experience, and the quality it provides.
