    CHAPTER 1 - BATTERIES AND BATTERY SWITCHES The HR yachts are equipped with separate domestic and start batteries located under the lateral saloon seat amidships, forward of the saloon table. Both can be isolated by the Battery Isolation Switches accessed from wooden door, under the inboard end of the lateral saloon seat at the base of the mast post.

    CHAPTER 2 - 240V ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND IMMERSION HEATER SWITCH Safety with 240 V on board. The 230V system is fitted with an earth leak switch (residual current circuit breaker) and a number of combined switches and overload circuit breakers for the different outlets. The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) switch is a safety device for preventing electric shock accidents if an electric lead should be touched;...
  • Page 9 Remember: if there is no earth breaker ashore, the cable faults are not protected against electrical shock between the boat and the shore. Note: The GFCI switch is so sensitive that rain or a damp connection can trigger it. Do not work on energized AC systems. 2 - 2 Mar 20...

    CHAPTER 3 - ELECTRICAL SERVICES CONTROLS The battery isolation switches (engine start and domestic) are behind a wooden door, at the mast foot, in the forward saloon. The emergency engine start (connects the domestic battery to engine start circuit) is located on the aft side of the quarter berth hanging locker. Battery Isolation Switches Emergency Engine Start Battery Switch With the battery isolation switches selected on, the 12V electrical services are...

In the event of a failure of electrically-heated hot water (not engine-heated), check the following: Check that the hot water is switched on at the rotary switch on the outboard wall in the starboard cockpit locker. If ON, the first course of action should be to cycle the switch and wait 20 minutes for a reaction.

    CHAPTER 5 - BILGE PUMPS There is one manual and one electric (Emergency) bilge pump and a bilge alarm. The manual pump is located in the port, aft, cockpit; the handle is located in the port aft cockpit gas locker. The electric bilge pump is located in the bilge under the saloon table alongside both pickup pipes.
  • Page 22 CHAPTER 6 - WEBASTO HEATER CONTROLS There is an excellent diesel heater onboard which quickly dries out the yacht and damp clothing. Heat transfer is via hot air, through adjustable low-level air vents in all cabins and the heads. Vents can be regulated from fully open to fully closed and the airflow directed.
  • Page 23 Operation Switching on the heater. By pressing the main switch ON / OFF the heater is activated. After switching on, the main switch illuminates and the indicator "ON / Status" lights to confirm the heater operation. Switching off the heater. By pressing the main switch ON / OFF again the heater operation is stopped.
  • Page 24: Gas Bottle Connection And Gas Detector Control Panel

    CHAPTER 7 - Gas Bottle Connection and Gas Detector Control Panel Gas Bottles The gas locker is located port aft in the cockpit; it has drains to atmosphere that must be kept clear. The locker can hold two R907 refillable gas cylinders. The gas regulator simply clips on (push fit) and the gas is turned on and off by rotating the black leaver through 90 degrees.
  • Page 25 will come on. This LED will flash if the battery voltage is too low. The gas detector is switched on automatically when the power supply is switched on. This is to prevent you from forgetting to switch it on. b. Once switched on, the sensor will have warmed up after about 1 minute and the gas detector can then detect the presence of gas reliably.
  • Page 26 Indicating the measured gas concentration (Alarm or safe) Whether a gas concentration has been measured by the sensor and whether the sensor is functioning correctly is shown by an acoustic alarm and two LEDs, one for each sensor. 1 SENSOR 2 The indication is as follows: Switching off the acoustic alarm.
  • Page 27 LED on the particular sensor will also come on. The buzzer will also give the attention signal. A sensor that has aged must be replaced. False Alarms False alarms can occur through the use of deodorant sprays etc. Moreover, transmission on the VHF radio, located near the Gas Detector Control Panel, will often initiate an audio and visual alarm.
