TRANSDUCER ANTI-FOULING
Following
installation
the water exposed face
of
the
transducer
may
be
painted
with one
thin
coat
of
hard
Antifouling,
carefully
applied
sa
that
the
pa
int
does
not
farm
or
trap
air
bubbles.
Care
should
be
taken
not
to
damage
the
transducer
face
or
the piezo electric crystal
that
it protects.
Accidental
damage
to this sealed
unit
cannot
be
repaired.

INST ALLA
nON
(Optional)
As
an
aJtefllative
to
mounting
the
transducer
through
the huil
with
the
face in
direct
contact
with
the water,
it
may be
positioned
inside a
glass-fibrt'
huil
by means
of
an
In
Huil
Transducer
Kit
as
shown
in Fig.
2.
The
In Hul!
Transducer
Kit
is
avaiJable from most
Chandlers
and
Baat
Yards, as
an
optional
extra.
The
end
cap
of
the
In
Huil
Transducer
Kit
is
provided
with
a
push-
out
insert
making
it
suitable
for
the
stem
diameter
of
bath
the
Sea
farer
600
and
the
Seafarer
3/4
transducers.
This
methad
of
installation
has the
dual
advantage
that
na
hole is
made
in
the
vesse['s
huil
and
that
the echo
sounder
and
transducer
can
easily
be
removed
for
examination
or
installation
eJsewhere.
It
should
be
mentioned
however,
that
although
the
accuracy
will in
na
way
be
atIected
by installing the
transducer
inside
the
huiL the
maximum
range sensitivity may be reduced
depending
upon
the thickness
and
quality
of
the glass-tibre.
We
do
not
recommend
ihis
methad
of
installation
if
the
thickness
of
the glass-
libre exceeds three-q uariers
of
an
inch.
Neither
do we
recommend
its use in hul!s
of
wood, steel
Or
aluminium,
although
this
methad
of
installa-
tion has been
found
accepiable
with
these
materials
in
same
cases.
Full
installation
details
are
supplied
with the
In
Hul!
Transducer
Kit
and
copies
are
available
on request to
Electronic
Laboratories
Limited.
INSTRUMENT INST ALLA
nON
WARNING:
Thc
location
of
the
instrument
s
hould
be
at
least 2 feet
(61
ems.)
from
a magnetic
compass
With
the
bracket
provided
the
instrument
may
be
mounted
in
any
position.
as
the
bracket
can
be
rotated
through
360
0
(The
brackei
is design-
•
ed to be slightl y
undersized
to ensure a
good

This
means
that
it
can
be
facing

a
cabin
roof,
or
on
top
of
an
instru-
ment
panel
or

mounted
by
the
cbari
tabie.
lf
the
instrument
is
mounted
out-
side
or
in
a cockpit. a sheliered position
should
3
be chosen, since
although
the
instrument
is
water
resistant
it
is
not
fully
waterproof.
For
this
reason
it
is
advisab
.le to
provide
a cover
or
some
additional
protection
against
extreme
climatic
conditions.
FLUSH MOUNTING
An
alternative
method
of
mounting
is to fully
recess the
instrument
into
a
panel
or
bulkhead
using a flush
mounting
nange.
The
template
provided
with
the
operating
booklet
may
be used
for
making
the
appropriate
cut
out
in the
bulkhead.
Remove
the two
plastic
side
mounting
knobs
and
cut
the
projecting
screw
threads
back
to the metal
flange
on
each
sicle
of
the
instrument
case.
Fit
the plastic
mounting
beze! to tbe
instrument
by
slacking the
four
fixing screws
at
the
rear
of
the
case sufficient to allow the be zei (which is
in
two
halves)
to
be
slipped
in between
the
front
panel
and
the case.
Re-tighten
the
four
screws
trapping
the
bezel in position.
The
instrument
can
now
be
pushed
into
the
cutout
in
the
bulkhead
from
the
front
and
secured with
eight
counter
sunk
SCIews
in
the
bez
e!.
