TCD2022 -TCD2042 THRUSTER CONTROLS REV001A
INSTALLATION
ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
The control panel complies with EMC standards (electromagnetic compatibility) but requires correct installation to avoid
compromising its performance and that of the surronding instruments.
For this reason the interface wires must be positioned at a distance of at least:
• 1 m away from cables that transmit radio signals (except for SSB radio transmitters).
• 2 m away from cables for SSB radio transmitter signals.
Follow the rules below to construct the electrical installation relative to the control panel:
• Connect the control connector to the connector coming from the thruster.
• Put in a switch to turn on and shut off the instrument (not supplied).
• Position the switch so that it is within easy reach should it be necessary to shut off the instrument in an emergency.
• Insert a 4A quick-acting fuse on the controls power supply line (not supplied).
• Use wires, for the remote control power supply, with a correct cross section according to their length.
• Do not use voltage from the motor or thruster battery circuit for the control panel.
• Before switching on the power to the control, check that all the electrical connections are correct.
