provided by the shipyard for the physical installation of the CP200-5C transducer must be
approved by the vessel’s national registry and corresponding maritime authority and/or
classification society. Such approval must be obtained before the installation can begin. The
shipowner and shipyard doing the installation are responsible for obtaining and paying
for such approval.
Important
Finalize the steel conduit installation before you pull the transducer cable through it.
Make sure that there are no spatter, sharp edges or protruding objects that can damage the
transducer cables. If a cable is damaged, and penetrated by water, the transducer may be
damaged beyond repair.

Procedure
1 Based on the vessel drawings, the physical properties of the decks and bulkheads, and
the physical locations of the transceiver and the transducer, design the steel conduit.
The steel conduit must preferably be straight. Start the conduit immediately above the
transducer, and terminate it well above the water line. If you must introduce bends on
the steel conduit, take the minimum cable bending radius into consideration.
2 Manufacture the steel conduit according to the relevant production standards.
3 Mount the steel conduit.
Secure the steel conduit to decks and/or bulkheads with welds. Observe relevant
requirements and guidelines from the classification society, and make sure that the
conduit is properly supported, strong and watertight.
Note
The quality of the welding is critical to the safety of the vessel. Welding must only be
done by a certified welder.
4 If relevant, allow the maritime authority and/or classification society to inspect and
approve the design and the installation of the steel conduit.
