SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
In-Service Safety Considerations
The sonar unit operates from low voltage DC electrical supplies and will not
normally present a shock hazard to users if a fault occurs. Underwater, if
divers are present, they should be advised not to come into contact with the
unit with power applied. The metal parts of the sonar housing are electrically
isolated from the internal power supplies.
The sonar unit is designed as a pressure vessel to withstand external
hydrostatic pressure. If a failure of any of the sealing mechanisms should
occur at depth then, as the unit is brought to the surface an internal pressure
may be present. Great care must be taken under these circumstances since
there is a slight possibility that the end cap may be pushed out of the housing
with some force. If the sonar unit fails during service at depth then this
situation must be considered.
The hood contains a hydraulic oil for compensation and water proofing
purposes. In the event of damage to the hood or its sealing mechanism then
oil leaks may occur. If this situation arises, keep the unit away from naked
flame, dispose of any materials which may become contaminated with oil and
wash thoroughly in the event of skin contact.
Disposal Safety Considerations
The sonar unit does not contain battery powered components.
