5.1 Transducer blister
The transducer arrays should be mounted underneath the vessel.
To achieve this, you can design and manufacture a streamlined
transducer blister, and mount it under the vessel’s hull. This is a
well proven way, when refitting a vessel with a EM 710 system.
Refer to Hatches for access to the steel conduits (top view) on
page 44 for the principles.
Note
The inside surface of the blister must be protected with
appropriate protective paint and an adequate amount of zinc.

Procedure
1
Design and manufacture the transducer blister.
• The blister must hold the two casings; one for the Tx
and one for the Rx transducer arrays. The appropriate
drawings describing these casings are included in the
Drawing File.
• The blister will be water filled. To let the air escape, make
a suitable hole in the rear end close to the vessel’s hull.
