List of EC150-3C cables
A set of cables is required to connect the EC150-3C units to each other, and to the
relevant power source(s). Additional cables are required to connect the EC150-3C to
peripheral devices.
Cable Type From/To Minimum requirements
C1 AC power cable From Power Supply Unit to
AC power outlet 2 x 1.5 mm 2 + 1.5 mm 2 Ground
Synchronization
cable From Power Supply Unit to
synchronization system
2 x 2 x 0.5 mm 2 C2
Synchronization is an optional feature. We strongly recommend that each signal cable
is equipped with galvanic isolation. Galvanic isolation reduces the risk of noise.
Ethernet cable From Power Supply Unit to
Processor Unit C3
It is very important that a high-quality Ethernet cable is used. You must use CAT-5E
STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) quality or better. If you use a cable with lower bandwidth
capacity you will reduce the EC150-3C performance.
C4 Ground cable From Power Supply Unit to
vessel ground 1 x 6 mm 2
Transducer cable From Power Supply Unit to
transducer
C5
The transducer cable is provided with the transducer. The transducer cable enters
the Power Supply Unit through the cable gland at the bottom of the cabinet. The
transducer cable is 40 metres long. The cable can not be extended. The cable can
be cut to match the installation requirements. Make sure that the cable length is
minimum 15 metres.
Comments
The EC150-3C is often a part of a project delivery. For such deliveries, specific project
cable drawings are established to show all the main cables, and how the various products
are connected. In such project cable drawings, the EC150-3C cables may be identified as
EC150-3C/Cx
.
