Faria Chesapeake SS Black Dual Temperature Digital Depth Sounder – Transom Transducer & Temp Sender Included (FAR 13752)

Depth and Dual Temperature — Chesapeake SS Black, All in One 2" Gauge

The Faria Chesapeake SS Black FAR 13752 is a full-featured in-dash depth sounder that adds dual temperature monitoring — displaying both water and air temperature alongside depth in a single, clean 2-1/16" gauge. It ships complete with a transom-mount transducer and temperature sender, so everything needed for installation is in the box.

The Chesapeake SS Black series pairs a stainless steel bezel with a black face — a sharp, nautical look that suits traditional helm stations, center consoles, and any dash where the Chesapeake Black aesthetic is the standard.

Key Features

• Dual Temperature Display — Reads both water temperature (via the included temp sender) and air temperature (via the head unit sensor) across a range of 32°F to 200°F; both readings available on the 2-line backlit display
• Depth to 199 ft / 61 m / 32 Fathoms — Selectable readout in feet, meters, or fathoms to suit your preference and region
• Deep and Shallow Water Alarms — Programmable alarms for both ends of the depth range; alerts you before reaching dangerously shallow water or when depth exceeds a set threshold
• Programmable Keel Offset — Calibrate the unit to display true depth below the keel rather than below the transducer for more accurate navigation reference
• 2-Line Backlit Display — Easy to read in all lighting conditions including direct sunlight and low-light night operation
• Standard 2-1/16" Gauge Hole — Drops into any standard instrument panel cutout; no custom fabrication required
• Chesapeake SS Black Styling — Stainless steel bezel with black face; matches the full Faria Chesapeake SS Black gauge family for a cohesive helm appearance
• Complete Kit — Includes transom-mount transducer and temperature sender; ready to wire and install

Best Use Case

The FAR 13752 is the right choice for powerboat, cruiser, and center console owners who want depth and temperature data in a single, clean 2" gauge — and who are building or refreshing a Faria Chesapeake SS Black instrument panel. The dual temperature capability (water + air) is particularly useful for anglers tracking thermoclines and for general boating situational awareness in varying weather conditions.

It’s the Chesapeake SS Black counterpart to the Faria Chesapeake SS White Dual Temperature Depth Sounder (FAR 13852) — identical in function, different in face color. Choose based on your panel’s existing gauge style.

For a matched Chesapeake SS Black panel, pair it with other gauges from the Faria Chesapeake SS 6-Gauge Inboard Set or the Faria Chesapeake SS 4-Gauge Outboard Set, and individual gauges including the Fuel Level, Oil Pressure, Water Temperature, and Voltmeter.

Need depth only without temperature? See the Faria Chesapeake SS Black Depth Sounder – Transom Mount (FAR 13750), the In-Hull version (FAR 13751), or the Thru-Hull version (FAR 13795).

Parts Desk Insights

Best for: Boaters completing or refreshing a Chesapeake SS Black instrument panel who want depth and dual temperature in one gauge. Functionally identical to the FAR 13852 — the only difference is the black face vs. white face. If your existing gauges are Chesapeake SS Black, this is the correct model.

Temperature sender placement: The included temperature sender reads water temperature and should be mounted on the transom below the waterline in a location with good water flow. Avoid mounting near exhaust outlets or in areas of turbulence, which can produce inaccurate readings. Air temperature is read by a sensor built into the head unit — no additional sender required for air temp.

Keel offset setup: Program the keel offset immediately after installation by measuring the distance from the transducer face to the bottom of the keel. This ensures depth readings reflect true clearance below the boat rather than below the transducer — an important safety calibration step.

Depth range note: The 199 ft range covers the vast majority of recreational powerboat and cruiser use cases. For deep-water offshore applications, a dedicated fishfinder or chartplotter with sonar is a better fit.

Panel matching: The FAR 13752 uses the same Chesapeake SS Black bezel and face as the rest of the Faria Chesapeake SS Black 2" gauge lineup — straightforward to integrate into an existing panel without mismatched styles.
