Approved Anti-Fouling Paints - Simrad ES120-7C Installation Manual

Note
The anti-fouling paint will reduce the acoustical performance of the transducer. The
surface roughness of the transducer substrate and the thickness of the paint may also
influence the performance. Kongsberg Maritime cannot be held responsible for any negative
consequences of the anti-fouling paint.
Because some paint types may be aggressive to the polyurethane in the transducer, consult
our list of approved paints. The list can also be found on http://www.simrad.com. Observe
the relevant instructions and safety information provided by the paint manufacturer.
