  • Page 23: Chapter 3: Installation

    Chapter 3: Installation This chapter describes how to install the ST60+ Speed instrument, and associated speed transducer. The transducer is fitted in the hull of the vessel and signals from it are connected by cable, to the rear of the instrument. The actual type of transducer depends on the type of hull in which it is to be installed.

    If you have ordered the flush mounting option a flush mount bezel and four fixing screws are also provided. Fitting the instrument The ST60+ Speed instrument can be installed using one of a number of different mounting options: • Surface mounting. Gives a profile of approximately 0.95 in (24 mm).

  • Page 28: Surface Mounting

    ST60+ Speed Instrument Owner’s Handbook Surface mounting Surface mounting To surface mount your ST60+ instrument (see the illustration): 1. Ensure that: • The selected location is clean, smooth and flat. • There is sufficient space behind the selected location to accommodate the rear of the instrument and connectors.
