CVS-841/851 Chapter 4 Installation Appendix 2 Transducer installation A2-1. Recommended transducer installation The transducer should be installed in a location free of bubbles and away from disturbed water flow. Smooth water flow around the transducer and along its surface is very important for consistent operation.
Page 38
Installation A2-2. Through-hull installation Transducer installation of CVS-841/851 is only possible with through-hull installation. Various types of rectifying tanks (Turbulence Minimizing Enclosure) are prepared according to the material of the ship’s hull or transducer frequency used. Mount the rectifying tank to the ship’s bottom before mounting the transducer to in the rectifying tank.

CVS-841/851 Chapter 5 Basic Operation 5.2.6 Setting the STC The STC (Sensitivity Time Control) is used to reduce the receiver gain in proportion to time, which is useful to eliminate nearby unwanted echoes like plankton, jelly fish, etc. There are two STC controls provided, STC Depth and STC Amplitude.
Chapter 5 CVS-841/851 Basic Operation Operational notes for the STC law . STC law A: STC is not enough, causing the noise and unwanted residual weak echoes in a shallow or mid depth zone to be shown. . STC law B: STC is appropriate, causing unwanted echoes to be perfectly reduced while schools of fish are shown without degradation.
