Installation summary
Installation of the CP200-5C transducer is a demanding task that requires careful
preparations, a number of specific procedures, wiring and required system settings.
Context
An overall installation procedure is provided. This procedure does not describe any detailed
tasks. Refer to the relevant tasks in this manual.
Note
In order to obtain maximum safety and optimal performance, it is very important that the
installation procedures in this manual are complied to. You must do the tasks in the order
they are described.
The vessel owner must make sure that the installation shipyard holds the applicable
competence to perform the installation, and that the applicable maritime authorities are
available to verify and certify the installation.
The installation shipyard must provide all necessary design and installation drawings, as
well as the relevant work standards and mounting procedures. If required, all documents
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.
Procedure
1 Determine the physical location of the transducer.
The decision must be based on:
• The vessel drawings
• The shape and properties of the hull
Make sure that all possible considerations are made to reduce noise.
2 Based on the shape of the transducer housing, and the mounting devices available,
determine the installation method.
3 Install the transducer.
The transducer cable - and some times also the transducer - will penetrate the hull. For
this reason, this is a crucial part of the installation.
4 Install the cables.
