Sleipner products. If you are interfacing the S-Link™ bus by agreement with Sleipner through a designated Sleipner supplied interface, you are still required to install at least one original Sleipner control panel to enable efficient troubleshooting if necessary.

Positioning of the Retract thruster The thruster must be installed as far forward as possible. Allow for 100mm around the thruster for moulding the retract frame and the depth of the retracted propeller is a minimum of: (185mm for retract systems 80 to 100) (250mm for retract systems 130 to 210) (300mm for retract systems 250 to 300) under the waterline.

Hull construction typical in many vessels is a composite layering method called a sandwich. To ensure the retract thruster is installed securely to these hull types, additional hull structure reinforcement is required to strengthen the area around the Sleipner retract housing mould.

Marking and Trimming of SRF Flange MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Identify the location of the thruster considering space required for installation, operation and future maintenance. 2. Mark the keel centre line on the inside of the hull. Flip the SRF flange upside down and use the internal surface to mark the hull for cutting the thruster hatch.
Page 11
Installation Pre-check MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Temporarily set up the complete installation to ensure no conflicts during the fi nal operation of the thruster. Use polyester or resin in the 4 corners of the lower retract mould and set it over the hatch. Attach the upper retract mould to the lower retract mould with 4 corner screws to hold them securely in place.

Required Modifi cations After Pre-check MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! To increase the space between the hatch and the hull the entire SRF flange and motor must be raised at the stern end. With the hatch in the open position raise the stern end of the SRF flange and motor until the appropriate clearance is achieved.

SRF Flange Installation MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Surfaces to be moulded/ bonded must be ground to remove coating and material to achieve suffi cient adhesion. Apply Epoxy fi ller or equivalent on bottom edges of SRF flange or on the hull for bonding between connection surfaces. Ensure the fi ller is compatible with hull materials.

Motor House Installation MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Apply MS Polymer or equivalent on SRF flange top surface to seal and avoid water leakage. (NB: Ensure that glue is compatible with SRF and thruster case materials.) Place the upper thruster Housing down on the SRF flange.

Hatch Installation MC_0068 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Fit custom made pin bolts to the tunnel rings. The ends of the bolts must be sharp to create marks in the hatch. The pin bolts must be in correct height so the hatch will fi t in its inner position.

Motor to House Installation MC_0173 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Install the motor onto the motor bracket ensuring both the couplings and the drive shafts have locked together. The motor must be installed with the solenoid facing the control box.

Oil Tank Installation MC_0023 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Install the oil tank above the waterline by at least 20% of the distance from the waterline to the centre of the tunnel. This ensures enough overpressure for the oil in the gear leg.

(NB: If two or more control panels are operated at the same time in opposite directions, the electronic control box will stop the thruster until it receives a single signal or thrust in one direction.) • Sleipner on/off equipment it is entirely “plug & play” and require no additional confi guration setup.

MC_0120 S-Link is a CAN-based control system used for communication between Sleipner products installed on a vessel. The system uses BACKBONE Cables as a common power and communication bus with separate SPUR Cables to each connected unit. Units with low power consumption are powered directly from the S-Link bus therefore one power cable must be connected to the BACKBONE Cable through a T-Connector.
