Disposal information
PSU, winch and camera body are classified as EE-disposal.
Camera with depth sensor contains a minor amount of glycol.
The camera body mainly consist of POM with minor parts in stainless steel.
Fasteners (combi-mount, aluminum pipes and winch brackets) are made of aluminum.
External bolts, screws and nuts are made of stainless steel.
The wires contain copper.
During storage, there are no danger of environmental pollution. All parts are recyclable.

Assessment of risk of escape
The Orbit Camera System represents, under normal operating conditions, no risk of escape when
used in a cage in a fish farm. No other parts of the camera system can cause damage to the cage
nets, ropes or other pieces of plastic or steel cage construction under normal operating conditions.
Issues:
1. The camera suspension rope breaks: The camera is designed without sharp edges. It will not
cause holes or wear on the cage net, even though it sinks to the bottom of the cage. If the
camera remains on the bottom for a long while, and/or is being pinched during lift-up or other
equipment, this could cause wear on the cage net.
2. Suspension on the cage edge: Combi-fixing at the cage edge is made of high strength
aluminum and are secured with stainless steel bolts and screws. These are normally not in
contact with the cage net. If the parts loosen, or they are not installed properly, it may be a risk
of wear on the cage net; this will be at a height of 50-80 cm above the water surface.
3. The winch strength: The winch has integrated load protection and is set to lift 10 kg in sea. At
overloads, the engine protection will disable the motor, to prevent the rope/cable/winch (which
is managed by the winch) to be hooked and wear hole in the cage net, when maneuvering the
winch.

INSTALLATION

Camera and camera cable
4.1.1
Wiring on the PSU
Tie the Orbit-3XXX firmly to the camera rope from the winch. Make sure it hangs the correct way so
that the rope keeps the camera plug in the right positon.
Fasten the camera cable to the camera. The
purpose of the camera rope is to tension relieve the camera cable to ensure that both the camera and
cable is lifted by the rope. The camera is then lowered in the water and the camera cable is laid out in
the cage. Tie a stop knot at the end of the camera cable and fix it to the mast to avoid unnecessary
stress to the plug in the PSU. Fasten the camera cable in the PSU marked “Camera”. Fasten the
Orbit-200/Orbit-210 on top of the mast and point it the direction you want to see. For Orbit-600 PSU
(and Orbit-3000 PSU), the cable is connected from the camera into the contact marked "Orbit-200".
On the Orbit-5xx PSU the cable is connected from the camera into the "Multi Contact 1". See picture 1
for illustration of how the connections in the PSU are.
