  • Page 10: System Units

    The transmitter array is mounted in parallel with the vessel’s keel. This is usually side by side with the EM 124 or EM 304 transmitter array. For a best performance, the SBP 29 system must use a three degrees transmitter array. However, it is normally inconvenient if the SBP 29 array is longer than the EM 124 or EM 304 array.
  • Page 11: Cabinets And Hydrographic Work Station

    The EM Receiver Unit contains preamplifiers for the common receiver array and provides digitized receiver data for both the EM and the SBP 29 system. The operator interface and display system is implemented on a dedicated Hydrographic Work Station.

  • Page 16: Preparations

    Tools, equipment and consumables required for SBP 29 installation In order to do the SBP 29 installation, all necessary tools and equipment for mechanical work, cabinet installation and electrical wiring must be available. It is not practical to provide a detailed list of all necessary tools and equipment. You must be equipped with a standard set of tools.
  • Page 17: Personnel Qualifications

    Personnel qualifications The installation of the SBP 29 is a demanding task. It is very important that the personnel involved in the installation tasks are competent and experienced craftsmen. As a minimum, the following certified craftsmen must be available.
  • Page 18: Sonar Room Requirements

    The SBP 29 units must be installed in a dry and dust-free environment. The units are not fully protected against humidity, dust or water. It is important that the sonar room is kept dry. The SBP 29 units must not be exposed to excessive temperatures, dust, moisture or humidity. Such conditions can cause corrosive attacks and subsequent failures to the electronic circuitry.
  • Page 19: Requirements For Insulation, Heating And Ventilation

    If the vessel is likely to operate in tropical conditions, a suitable air conditioning system must be installed. The air conditioning system must be able to provide an ambient temperature that does not exceed the maximum operating temperatures of the SBP 29 units that are installed in the room.
  • Page 20 A minimum number of additional electrical outlets must be provided for other equipment. Cabling requirements The sonar room units are connected to other SBP 29 units located in different compartments on the vessel. The units may also be connected to peripheral devices. If these cables pass through hatches or areas where they may be damaged, they must be run in conduits.
  • Page 21: Where To Install The Sbp 29

    Mount the SBP 29 deep In order to achieve the best possible SBP 29 performance, mount the SBP 29 as deep as possible under the vessel’s hull. There are several reasons for this recommendation.
  • Page 22: Avoid Protruding Objects Near The Sbp 29

    Transmitting in air The SBP 29 must never be lifted free of the water surface. If the SBP 29 is activated when out of the water it may be damaged beyond repair. Mounting the SBP 29 at a deep position on the hull will in normally prevent this.
  • Page 23: Keep The Sbp 29 Far Away From The Propellers

    In general, the most important factor is to avoid air bubbles in front of the SBP 29 face. For this reason, the recommended SBP 29 location is normally in the fore part of the hull, well ahead of the noise created by the bow wave.
  • Page 24 Maximum 1/3 of the hull length at water line (C) If the vessel hull has a bulbous bow, this may well be a good SBP 29 location, but also in this case the flow pattern of the aerated water must be taken into consideration. The foremost part of the bulb is often a good location.
  • Page 25 Important The SBP 29 must not have a negative inclination angle compared to water flow. Do not place a SBP 29 in the vicinity of protruding objects, and especially not close behind them. Make sure that the surface of the resulting installation is as smooth and streamlined as possible.
  • Page 26: Acoustic And Electric Noise

    SBP 29 Installation Manual Acoustic and electric noise To achieve SBP 29 data of the best quality, it important that the noise levels are as low as possible. Noise will limit the systems capability to achieve high penetration, so it is important to address the noise challenge during planning of the SBP 29 installation.
  • Page 27: Self Noise

    • Flow noise • Acoustic noise from other hydroacoustic systems The SBP 29 cables are long, and may pick up electric noise from generators, pumps, cooling systems and other electric or electromechanical devices. The preamplifiers are very sensitive, and they can easily pick up electrical noise from internal and external power supplies.
  • Page 28 The main contributor to machinery noise is usually the main engine on board the vessel. The contribution from auxiliary machinery may, however, be considerable, especially if it is in poor shape. The machinery noise can be transmitted to the SBP 29 as: • Structure-borne noise through the ship structure and the SBP 29 mountings •...
  • Page 29 Preparations Flow noise The upper water layers of the sea contain a myriad of small air bubbles created by the breaking waves. When the hull moves through water it will cause a disturbance, and this will generate friction. The friction zone is called the flow boundary layer. The flow in this boundary layer may be laminar or turbulent.
  • Page 30: Ambient Noise

    Electrical or electronic self noise is picked up or generated in any other part of the equipment than the SBP 29. Hum picked up by the SBP 29 cables or picked up from the power supply is usually the most common source of electrical self noise. At higher frequencies – where rather wide bandwidths are necessary –...
  • Page 31 Reducing rattle noise Ensure that no parts near the SBP 29 can rattle as a result of water flow or vibrations. Reducing interference Interference from the transmission pulses from other hydroacoustic instruments on board the vessel is difficult to avoid.
  • Page 32 • Make sure that all units are properly grounded, as this is important to avoid electrical noise. • Use shielded cables with correct grounding. • Separate SBP 29 cables from other cables with high voltages, large currents or transients. • Place all high voltage power cables in metal conduits.
  • Page 33: Installing The Sbp 29 Transducer Array

    The SBP 29 Tx array should normally be mounted in flush and in parallel with the EM 124 or EM 304 Tx array. Both arrays are normally mounted in parallel with the keel.
