Hardware (bolts, etc.)
Check all bolts, washers and split washers for signs of corrosion before each deployment.
TRDI recommends replacement after every deployment or every year whichever is longer. Damaged hardware
should never be used.
Zinc Anodes
Inspect the anodes before each deployment for wear around the mounting bolts. Cover bolts with silicone
sealant prior to deployment. Replace anodes whenever the mounting bolt is in less than 75% in contact with
the bolt. Replace all anodes every one to two years maximum.
Cables and Connectors
Check the end-cap I/O connector for cracks or bent pins (see Figure 21) before each deployment.
Replace the end-cap I/O connector
every five years as a normal maintenance item (see Table 4.
ment Kits to order parts).
Check the cable connectors for cracks or bent pins. Inspect the full length of the cable for cuts, nicks in the
insulation, and exposed conductors before each deployment.
Check the Deck Box (Mariner) connectors on the rear panel for cracks or bent pins. Repair of the Deck Box
connectors should only be done by TRDI.
