TRANSDUCER CABLE GLANDS AND SPLICING
The transducer cable must pass through the hull using approved
cable glands for the type of vessel in question.
About cable glands
A steel cable gland is normally used on professional vessels
with steel hulls. A
bronze
cable gland can be delivered as an
option for vessels with wood or fibreglass hulls. Vessel not to be
classified can as an option use a cable gland made of
plastic
.
Note
Simrad strongly recommends that a length of conduit is fitted
around transducer cable glands made of steel or bronze and
extended over the water-line inside the vessel. This precaution
reduces the danger of flooding in the event of gland failure and
transducers installed in this manner are also easier to replace.
Some vessels may experience difficulties finding suitable areas
of the hull for mounting transducer cable glands due to existing
water tanks, concrete ballast or other obstacles. A possible
solution in such cases is to run the transducer cables in a steel
conduit aft along the hull until a suitable cable gland location is
available. The respective cable gland can then be installed as
described in the following instructions.
Note
Simrad takes no responsibility for the correct installation of
cable glands, associated hull modifications and/or structural
support of transducer cable penetration. These activities are
subject to individual approval by the respective classification
society for the vessel in question.
