    Chapter 3: Installation Chapter 3: Installation This chapter describes how to install the ST60 Tridata instrument, and associated Speed and Depth transducers. The transducers are fitted in the hull of the vessel and connected to the rear of the instrument. The actual type of transducers depends on the type of hull in which they are to be installed.
  • Page 26 Wood Other transducer types are also available for specific requirements. For further details, contact your local Raymarine dealer. For accurate speed and depth readings the transducers should be sited within the clear water flow areas indicated by the shaded areas in the following diagram.

  • Page 27: Instrument

    Chapter 3: Installation • Be as near as possible to the centre line of the vessel. • Be clear of other through-hull fittings or projections. • Have sufficient clearance inside the hull to fit the nut. • Have 100 mm (4 in) of headroom to allow for withdrawal. In addition to the above requirements, the depth transducer must be mounted within 10 Maximum transducer angle...
