Unpacking the hull unit from its transport
box
The hull unit is delivered in a large wooden transport box.
Prerequisites
The shipyard must provide all necessary tools and manpower. The following specific
items are required for this task:
• Carpenter tools
• A crane capable of lifting the entire hull unit
Minimum lifting capacity: 2000 kg
Note
The hull unit is heavy. Appropriate lifting equipment (lifting tackle, portable crane or
ship’s crane) is required. Always use appropriate lifting equipment to minimize risk of
personnel injury or equipment damages. Only certified equipment must be used.
Context
The hull unit, transducer and transducer cable must be handled with care.
Note
The transducer is protected with a thick layer of foam to prevent damage during
transport and hull unit installation. This protection must remain attached while the hull
unit is being manoeuvred into the sonar room.
