NOTE
: For diver installations, we suggest attaching the hex
wrench to a lanyard.
9. Tighten each of the mounting screws using the hex wrench until
the transducer is secured in the housing and does not move.
The recommended tightening torque is 20N-m (15ft-lb). Fill the
screw heads and counterbores with marine sealant until they
are flush with the transducer’s radiating face. Remove any
excess sealant to ensure smooth water flow over the
transducer (Figure 2).
Maintenance
Aquatic growth can accumulate rapidly on the transducer’s
surface reducing the performance in weeks. Clean the surface
with a soft cloth and mild household detergent. Reapply
antifouling paint every 6 months.
The information needed to order a replacement Airmar transducer
is printed on the cable tag. Do not remove this tag. When
ordering, specify the part number, date, and frequency in kHz.
For convenient reference, record this information at the top of
page one.
Obtain parts from your instrument manufacturer or marine dealer.
