Rules for transducer handling

Note

Do not

lift the transducer by the cable.

Do not

expose the transducer to direct sunlight.

Do not

expose the transducer to excessive heat.

Transport protection

Some transducers are delivered with a cover plate on the face for protection during
transport. Let this plate stay on as long as possible, but do not forget to remove it before
the vessel goes into the sea.

Painting the transducer face

An anti-fouling paint may be applied to the transducer face. Because some paint types
may be aggressive to the polyurethane in the transducer face, please consult Simrad’s list
of approved paints. See

Approved anti-fouling paints for transducers

on page 28.
