About this manual
The purpose of this manual is to present the descriptions and drawings required to install
the Simrad ES38DD Transducer.
Target audience
The manual is intended for technical personnel; such as skilled shipyard workers,
electricians, qualified engineers and naval architects. It is assumed that you understand
the general principles of maritime electronic equipment. You must also be familiar with
the installation of electronic and mechanical products. You are expected to have basic
mechanical skills and familiarity with handling of sensitive electronic equipment.
Installation instructions and drawings
The information in this document must be regarded as general guidelines and
recommendations only. The installation shipyard must design and manufacture
installation hardware to fit each individual transducer on the vessel.
Note
The installation shipyard must provide all necessary design and installation drawings, as
well as the relevant work standards and mounting procedures.
If required, all documents provided by the shipyard for the physical installation of
the ES38DD must be approved by the vessel's national registry and corresponding
maritime authority and/or classification society. Such approval must be obtained before
the installation can begin. The shipowner and shipyard doing the installation are
responsible for obtaining and paying for such approval.
Kongsberg Maritime AS will accept no responsibility for any damage or injury to the
system, vessel or personnel caused by equipment that has been incorrectly installed or
maintained, or by drawings, instructions or procedures that have not been prepared by
us. The outline dimensions of the ES38DD transducer and the relevant installation items
can be found in the Drawing file chapter in this manual.
End user manuals and source drawings (normally in AutoCad format) can be downloaded
from our website.
