MOUNTING

• Be sure the power supply matches equipment voltage rating. Improper power supply will

damage the equipment.

• Locate the transducer where the affects of noise and air bubbles are minimal. Noise and air

bubbles will affect performance.

• When selecting a mounting location keep the following points in mind:

• Keep equipment out of direct sunlight.

• Keep equipment away from air conditioner.

• The useable temperature range of the display unit is 0°–50°C.

• Provide sufficient ventilation.

• Select location where vibration is minimal.

• Locate the equipment away from magnets and magnetic materials.

• Keep the transducer away from oil. Oil can corrode the cable.

• Do not expose the transducer to hot water. Hot water can damage the transducer.

• Do not turn on the equipment with the transducer exposed to air. Exposing the transducer to

air may damage it.

• Magnetic compass performance will be affected if it is placed too close the display unit.

Observe the compass safe distances shown below to prevent deviation of a magnetic com-

pass.
