Installing the transducer
The transducer can be flush mounted on large vessels, where the size of the hull prevents
air bubbles from reaching down to the transducer face. Flush mounting can also be
used on vessels operating in shallow harbours or waters, where a protruding blister
can not be accepted.

Using the mounting ring
This large circular is
transducer is designed
to be mounted using the
integrated flange and a mounting ring.The mounting ring is welded to the hole prepared
for the transducer. Bolts through the transducer flange into the mounting ring will secure
the transducer in place.

Make sure that the "Forward" direction on transducer points in the forward direction
of the vessel.
A suitable mounting ring can be provided by Kongsberg Maritime. A drawing is
available for local manufacturing. The drawing (normally in AutoCad format) can be
downloaded from our website.
