  • Page 18: Rules For Transducer Handling

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Rules for transducer handling To secure long life and accurate results, the transducer must be handled correctly. A transducer must always be handled as a delicate instrument. Incorrect actions may damage the transducer beyond repair. Observe these transducer handling rules: Do not activate the transducer when it is out of the water.

  • Page 19: Inspecting And Cleaning The Transducer Face

    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.
  • Page 20 Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Context During normal use, the transducer is subjected to biological fouling. If this marine growth is excessive, it will reduce the overall performance of your system. Whenever opportunity arise, typically when the vessel is dry-docked, the transducer face must be cleaned for shells and other marine growth.

  • Page 21: Painting The Transducer Face

    Because some paint types may be aggressive to the polyurethane in the transducer, consult our list of approved paints. The list of approved anti-fouling paints can be found on our website. • https://www.kongsberg.com/anti-fouling-paints Related topics Transducer handling and maintenance, page 15 Approved anti-fouling paints, page 21 Painting the transducer face Marine growth (biological fouling) on the transducer face reduces the performance.

  • Page 42: Avoid Protruding Objects Near The Transducer

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Avoid protruding objects near the transducer Objects protruding from the hull will generate turbulence and flow noise. This will reduce the overall performance of your system. Protruding objects may be zinc anodes, transducers or even the vessel's keel. Holes and pipe outlets are also important noise sources, as well as rough surfaces caused by bad welding.

  • Page 43: Keep The Transducer Far Away From The Propellers

    Preparations Air bubbles absorb and reflect the sound energy, and they may in worst cases block the sound transmission altogether. The boundary layer increases in thickness when it becomes turbulent. The boundary layer is thin in the forward part of the vessel hull, and increases as it moves aft. The thickness depends on ships speed and on the roughness of the hull.

  • Page 44: Mount The Transducer At A Safe Distance From Bow Thruster(S)

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Mount the transducer at a safe distance from bow thruster(s) Bow thruster propellers are extremely noisy. When you decide where to place the transducer, you must consider the noise created by most bow thrusters. When in operation, the noise and cavitation bubbles created by the thruster may make your CP200-5C transducer useless, almost no matter where it is installed.
  • Page 45 Preparations Transducer Hull length at water line Inclination angle 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 transducer 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 46 Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Important The transducer must not have a negative inclination angle compared to water flow. Do not place a transducer near protruding objects, and especially not close behind them. Make sure that the surface of the resulting installation is as smooth and streamlined as possible.

    Preparations Acoustic noise Topics Contributing factors, page 45 Self noise, page 47 Ambient noise, page 49 Fishing gear noise, page 50 Electrical self noise, page 50 Some means to reduce acoustic noise, page 51 Contributing factors Several factors are contributing to the performance of the hydroacoustic equipment used on board a vessel.
  • Page 48 Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Wikipedia, Copied September 2013 The signal is the echo that we want to know something about, while the noise is any unwanted signals or disturbances. The echo must be detected in the noise and therefore it is necessary to keep the noise level as low as possible in order to obtain high echo interpretation.

  • Page 49: Self Noise

    Preparations The converters transform the analogue echoes to digital format. Signal processing circuitry can create digital noise. Related topics Preparations, page 22 Acoustic noise, page 45 Self noise Any vessel equipped with a hydroacoustic system (for example echo sounder or sonar) will produce more or less self noise.
  • Page 50 Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Cavitation Cavitation is the formation of small air bubbles close to the transducer face. The bubbles appear because the local pressure becomes negative during parts of the acoustic pressure cycles. The cavitation threshold increases with the hydrostatic pressure.

  • Page 51: Ambient Noise

    Preparations The boundary layer increases in thickness when it becomes turbulent. The boundary layer is thin in the forward part of the vessel hull, and increases as it moves aft. The thickness depends on ships speed and on the roughness of the hull. All objects sticking out from the hull, or dents in the hull, will disturb the flow and will increase the thickness of the boundary layer.

  • Page 52: Fishing Gear Noise

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual In some areas, where many vessels operate together, the engine and propeller noise from other vessels may be disturbing. Interference from hydroacoustic instruments located in other vessels may also be a limiting factor. The sea noise depends on the weather conditions.

  • Page 53: Some Means To Reduce Acoustic Noise

    Preparations Some means to reduce acoustic noise Several factors are contributing to the performance of the hydroacoustic equipment used on board a vessel. Careful planning of the installation may reduce the acoustic noise. Unfortunately, it is impossible to simply provide a number of specific procedures to reduce the noise.
  • Page 54 Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Reducing propeller noise The transducer must be installed as far away from the propellers as possible. Sufficient clearance between the propellers and the hull, the rudder and the keel must be provided. Place the sacrificial anodes in places where the water flow is the least disturbed.

  • Page 56: Vessel Coordinate System

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Vessel coordinate system The vessel coordinate system is established to define the relative physical locations of system units and sensors. When you have several different sensors and transducers on your vessel, and you wish each of them to provide accurate data, you need to know their relative physical positions. The antenna of a position sensor is typically mounted high above the superstructure, while a motion sensor is located close to the vessel’s centre of gravity.
  • Page 57 Preparations antennas, echo sounder and sonar transducers, motion reference units, etc.) are referenced to the origin. In most cases, the location of the vessel’s "official" origin has been defined by the designer or shipyard. This origin is normally identified with a physical marking, and also shown on the vessel drawings.

    Simrad CP200-5C Installation Manual Using a suitable inclination angle Ideally, the transducer face should be mounted in parallel with the sea surface when the vessel is in normal trim, as this will provide the most accurate echo information. However, it is also very important that the water flow over the transducer face is laminar.
