Furuno FI- Wind Transducers Requires Cable.

Furuno FI-5001 and FI-5001L Wind Transducers (Require Cable)

Models:

• FI-5001 (Standard Shaft Length 370mm)

• FI-5001L (Long Shaft 720mm)

The Furuno FI-5001 series analog wind transducers are designed for use with NavNet 3D and FI50/FI70 instrument displays. Both models accurately detect wind angle with better than ±10° accuracy and wind speed with better than ±5% accuracy at 20 knots. They require less than 40 mA power from a 12V DC system.

The FI-5001L features a longer shaft for improved visibility and performance on sailboats or powerboats requiring greater standoff from the mast.

Important: Neither sensor includes a cable as standard. Users must order a 30-meter or 50-meter cable kit separately. Each cable kit includes a junction box for secure connections and ease of installation.

Key Features

• Analog wind vane capable of precise wind direction and speed measurement.

• Power consumption: less than 40 mA at 12V DC.

• Shaft lengths: 370mm (FI-5001), 720mm (FI-5001L) for different mounting needs.

• Wind angle accuracy: better than ±10°.

• Wind speed accuracy: better than ±5% at 20 knots.

• Compatible with NavNet 3D, FI50, and FI70 series instruments.

• Suitable for both sail and power boats.

Installation Notes

• Mount the transducer on the mast with the base parallel to the waterline and vane pointing to the bow.

• Four self-tapping screws are provided for secure mounting.

• The sensor connector mates with a 30m or 50m cable assembly (sold separately) with integrated junction box.

• Optional lock fittings are included for secure mounting.

• Data is output as analog signals, converted for use on FI70 or TZtouch displays via IF-NMEAFI Analog-NMEA2000 converter.

What’s Not Included

• Transducer cables (30m or 50m cable kits must be purchased separately).
