6.3 SONAR ROOM HULL AND TRANSCEIVER UNIT INSTALLATION
The following section will describe the installation procedure for the sonar room unit
requirements for the SL35 Sonar. See paragraph 0.0 for the SL 30 installation.
6.3.1 Sonar Room Mounting Space
The hull unit is generally placed about 1/3 (1/2 in case of a small boat) of the ship
length from the bow on the FORE-AFT line and beside the keel line (less than
1000mm from the keel line)
For a larger vessel the hull unit should be mounted as far Forward as possible to
avoid turbulence.
Note: On larger vessels, a dedicated sonar room is provided.
See Part 8 “ Attachment and Drawings ” for the recommended mounting space
drawing and overhead clearance requirement.
