Cable gland installation for smaller vessels
This cable glands made of plastic is designed for those smaller

(A) = Packing nut (bronze).
Ensure that you do not to
damage the transducer cable by
tightening the packing nut too
hard!
(B) = Rubber gasket
(C) = Plastic disk
(D) = Rubber gasket
(E) = Stuffing tube
(F) = Backing nut (bronze)
(G) = Backing washer (plastic)
(H) = O-ring 42.5 x 3.0 N
(I) = O-ring 39.5 x 3.0 N
(J) = Cable to the echo sounder
(or a junction box)
Stuffing tube hole diameter: 36 mm ±1.5 mm.
Apply ample amount of sealant between the backing washer (H)
and the hull plate.
The cable gland kit contains all the listed parts, except the
sealant.
Note
The two O-rings must be clean, in good condition and free of cuts
or other defects which could affect their water-tight integrity.
Splicing
If you need to cut the transducer cable, you must splice it
correctly.
Note
DO NOT solder the wires together with only electrical tape for
insulation, as this will result in electrical noise and reduced
operational performance.
To splice the cable, use a metal junction box. The chassis of the
junction box must be grounded, but the cable shielding must
NOT be connected to the junction box ground.
