Furuno Echosounder FCV-600

SKU: IMD040670AA
EAN: IMD040670AA
Stock:

Standalone echo sounder with 600 W transmission power and the option of either a dual-frequency 50/200 kHz transducer or a CHIRP transducer. Furuno TruEcho CHIRP™ filters out unwanted noise, while RezBoost™ enhances performance. Depending on the transducer, the ACCU-FISH™ function, which indicates fish size, can be utilized. A wide range of compatible transducers simplifies upgrades to the FCV-600.

Standalone Echosounder for Dual-Frequency or CHIRP Transducer

  • 600 W transmit power for solid range performance
  • High/low-frequency echosounder: 50 / 200 kHz
  • Supports either dual-frequency CW or a CHIRP transducer
  • Heave stabilization when connected to satellite compass
  • Bottom hardness output to plotter
  • RezBoost™ enhances performance of CW transducers
  • ACCU-FISH™ displays fish size
  • Wide selection of compatible transducers

DUAL-FREQUENCY OR CHIRP COMPATIBILITY

The FCV-600 features a single transducer port and 600 W transmit power. You can connect either a dual-frequency 50/200 kHz transducer or a single-frequency CHIRP transducer.

Depending on the connected transducer, the FCV-600 supports features like bottom classification and ACCU-FISH™ for fish size display.

When connected to a CHIRP transducer, it unlocks Furuno TruEcho CHIRP™ technology for improved noise reduction, increased detail, and better target separation.

The FCV-600 supports dual-display operation—one unit can act as a wireless slave display, with up to 10 meters of range.

A CHIRP transducer gives access to Furuno TruEcho CHIRP™ technology for better noise handling, higher fidelity and sharper separation.

Recommended Transducers for FCV-600

For the best performance and feature access, we recommend:

  • 600 W:  520-5PSD, 50/200 kHz, 42/12°
  • 600 W:  520-5MSD, 50/200 kHz, 45/12°

Also works well with a 1 kW transducer:

  •   1 kW:  B260, 50/200 kHz, 1 kW, 19/6°

RETROFIT-FRIENDLY

The FCV-600 is compatible with a wide range of standard transducers. When upgrading from an older sounder, you can often reuse your existing transducer, and upgrade later for full access to new features and peak performance.

HIGH PERFORMANCE WITH RICH COLOR GRADATIONS

The FCV-600 displays echoes with expanded color gradations compared to previous models. High performance and excellent target separation make it easy to distinguish between bottom, bait, and fish at a glance.

FCV-600, A FEATURE-RICH ECHOSOUNDER

  • TruEcho CHIRP™ - exceptional noise-processing and sharp detail across a wide frequency band, that the CHIRP transducer enables
  • RezBoost™ signal processing -  improves performance and resolution with traditional CW transducers
  • ACCU-FISH™ - displays fish size and depth
  • Bottom classification -  identifies seabed type across four categories: rock, sand, gravel, and mud
  • New! Bottom hardness output - transmits data to external plotters such as TZ Professional and NavNet
  • New! Expanded color gradations - better differentiation between echoes from bottom, baitfish, and targets
  • White line function - highlights the seabed top line in white for easier interpretation
  • Customizable alarms - set alerts for depth, fish echoes, swimming speed, and more
  • TLL (Target Lat/Lon) output - mark fishing spots with metadata like depth, water temperature, fish size, and bottom type after which you can export the data to plotters such as TimeZero Professional or NavNet
  • New! Wireless connectivity - optional wireless secondary display for easier installation

 

COMPARISON WITH FCV-800

 

 

While the FCV-600 offers similar performance to the FCV-800, there are a few key limitations:

  • Transmit Power: FCV-600 is 600 W only, while FCV-800 supports both 600 W and 1 kW
  • Transducer Port: FCV-600 has a single port and cannot combine CW and CHIRP transducers like the FCV-800
  • Interface Support: FCV-600 supports NMEA 2000 only, while the FCV-800 also supports NMEA 0183

Expanded color gradations allow for easier differentiation between echoes from bottom, baitfish, and targets.

ACCU-FISH displays fish size and depth.
