Safety instructions for the installer WARNING Do not open the equipment. Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment. Turn off the power before beginning the installation. Fire or electrical shock can result if the power is left on. Confirm that is no water leakage at the transducer and temperature sensor.

• Leave slack in cables for maintenance and servicing ease. • A magnetic compass will be affected if the network sounder is placed too close to it. Observe the compass safe distances noted in the safety instructions to prevent dis- turbance to the magnetic compass.
Transducer 520-5PSD, 520-5MSD 1.3.1 Mounting location .The performance of this sounder is directly related to the mounting location of the transducer, especially for high-speed cruising. The installation should be planned in advance, keeping the standard cable length and the following factors in mind: •...
1.3.2 Acceptable mounting locations Deep-V hull * Position 1/2 to 1/3 length of the hull from stern. * 15-30 cm from center line (inside first lifting strakes). Transducer mounting location on deep-V hull High speed V-planing hull Transducer mounting location on high speed V-planing hull * Within the wetted bottom area * Deadrise angle within 15°...
1.3.3 Installation procedure 1. With the boat hauled out of the water, mark the location selected for mounting the transducer on the bottom of the hull. If the hull is not level within 15° in any direction, fairing blocks made out of teak should be used between the transducer and hull, both inside and outside, to keep the transducer face parallel with the water line.
Transducer 525-5PWD (transom mount) This type of mounting is very commonly employed for outboard motor boats. Do not use this method on an inboard motor boat because turbulence is created by the pro- peller ahead of the transducer. There are two methods of installation: flush with hull (for flat hulls) and projecting from hull (for deep V-hulls).
1.4.2 Installation for deep-V hulls This method is employed on deep-V hulls and provides good performance because the effects of air bubbles are minimal. Install the transducer parallel with water surface; not flush with hull. If the boat is placed on a trailer care must be taken not to damage the transducer when the boat is hauled out of the water and put on the trailer.
Inside Hull Mount This mounting method is available for FRP boats. 1.5.1 Necessary tools You will need the following tools: • Sandpaper (#100) • Silicone sealant • Silicone grease 1.5.2 Remarks on installation • Turn off the engine and anchor the boat while installing the equipment. •...
1.5.4 Installation procedure 1. Clean the transducer face to remove any foreign material. Lightly roughen the transducer face with #100 sandpaper. Also, roughen the inside of the hull where the transducer is to be mounted. 2. Warm the silicone sealant to 40°C before usage to soften it. Coat the transducer face and mounting location with silicone sealant.
Optional Water Temperature Sensor ST-02MSB, ST-02PSB Select a suitable mounting location considering the following points: • Select a mid-boat flat position. The sensor does not have to be installed perfectly perpendicular. The sensor must not be damaged in dry-docking operation. •...
Optional Temperature Sensors 1.7.1 Transom mount temperature sensor T-02MTB • Fix the cable at a convenient location with cable clamp. • When the cable is led in through the transom board, make a hole of approx. 17 mm in diameter to pass the connector. After passing the cable, fill the hole with a seal- ing compound.
1.7.2 Thru-hull temperature sensor T-02MSB, T-03MSB Select a suitable mounting location considering the following points: • Select a mid-boat flat position. The sensor does not have to be installed perfectly perpendicular. However, the location should not be such that the transducer may be damaged when the boat is dry-docked.
Optional Triducers 1.8.1 Thru-hull triducer 525ST-MSD See section 1.2 for how to install the 525ST-MSD. 133 mm 1.8.2 Transom mount triducer 525ST-PWD Pre-test for speed and temperature Connect the sensor to the instrument and spin the paddlewheel. Check for a speed reading and the approximate air temperature.

• Straight edge • Marine sealant • Pencil • Zip-ties • Water-based antifouling paint (mandatory in salt water). Mounting location To ensure the best performance, the sensor must be submerged in aeration-free and turbulence-free water. Mount the sensor close to the centerline of the boat. On slower heavier displacement hulls, positioning it farther from the centerline is acceptable.

Installation of bracket 1. Cut out the installation template (enclosed with transducer) along the dotted line. 2. At the selected location, position the template, so the arrow at the bottom is aligned with the bottom edge of the transom. Being sure the template is parallel to the waterline, tape it in place.

Cable routing Route the sensor cable over the transom, through a drain hole, or thorough a new hole drilled in the transom above the waterline. Never cut the cable or remote the connector; this will void the warranty. Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask.
