DST820 Bronze Thru Hull - NMEA 2000 - 235kHz

The DST820 Smart Multisensor is the next evolution of Airmar’s industry-leading technology, replacing the DST810 and introducing PSTI compliance for enhanced onboard network security.

With its secure QR-code setup, connecting your DST820 has never been easier—or safer. Simply scan the QR code and enter a one-time security password on your mobile device to protect your sensor on the network.

Featuring Airmar’s high-performance Gen2 paddlewheel, the DST820 delivers unmatched speed-through-water accuracy— providing precise start-up data below 0.3 knots, linear accuracy from 0.6 knots, and stable, reliable readings all the way up to 45 knots.

Whether you’re a day sailor, weekend cruiser, or tactical racer, accurate speed-through-water (STW) data helps you fine-tune sail trim and rig balance for maximum performance. For racers, precise STW readings enable accurate velocity made good (VMG) and target speed calculations, ensuring every tactical decision is data-driven.

Together, the DST820 and Airmar’s CAST™ app make speed calibration simpler than ever. The free CAST app provides powerful calibration tools—once only available through costly PC-based software—now instantly accessible from your smartphone or tablet. Choose from basic or advanced calibration options to suit your needs.

Beyond speed, the DST820 measures depth and water temperature, and provides a 5.7 Hz (5× per second) speed output with improved resolution. Its integrated attitude sensor delivers heel and trim data, enabling heel-compensated speed calibration across multiple heel angles and speed ranges—fast, intuitive, and completely independent of onboard instruments.

With depth tracking from 0.5 m (1.6 ft) to 100 m (328 ft), the DST820 also provides reliable depth data to help ensure you never run aground.

The result: industry-leading speed accuracy, wireless calibration convenience, and next-generation security—all in one powerful, compact sensor.

Features:

  • The DST820 is fully compliant with UK PSTI security standards, ensuring that the connection between DST820 and a mobile device is secure.
  • The industry’s best speed paddlewheel – DST820 features the Gen2 paddlewheel for industry-leading speed performance from 0.3 knots to 45 knots.
  • Smoother Speed – 5.7 Hz speed output (5X per second) for visibly smoother speed-through-water reporting and faster data for better decision making when every second counts.
  • Integrated Attitude Sensor – For heel and trim, and used in advanced speed calibration.

DST820 secure Bluetooth® connectivity to Airmar’s CAST app provides the ability to:

  • Calibrate the DST820 in a simple, intuitive way from your mobile device.
  • Conduct basic and advanced heel-compensated speed calibrations for improved speed-through-water outputs across the speed range.
  • Advanced speed calibration allows for manual speed entries for multiple heel angles and up to 10 speeds, formerly only possible through expensive PC software.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

Cole 12 MX Multiflex Planter | Model B46-664A / 0120103 | Width 13" | Size: One Row | 3PT Hitch Planter Attachment | Horsepower 25–45 HP | For Tractor

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.
