Page 10: Important
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Important The SU90 is an advanced product. It is used with other advanced products. There is important information that you need to know. Watertight integrity The size, location and design of the sonar room must fulfil all the requirements to the vessel’s watertight integrity.
Page 11 Simrad SU90 Before you turn on the SU90 system Before you turn on the SU90 system, make sure that you have sufficient water depth to lower the transducer! Caution You must never turn on the SU90 system when the ship is in dry dock. The transducer can be damaged if it transmits in the open air.
Page 12: System Description
• Do not damage the transducer cables. Avoid exposure to sharp objects. System description The Simrad SU90 is a long range and low frequency fish finding sonar with a 360 degrees coverage. The SU90 system is designed for medium and large sized fishing vessels.It was originally developed for purse seiners, but experience has proven that it is also well suitable for trawlers.
Page 13 The SU90 system is equipped with the celebrated signal processing software developed by Kongsberg Maritime. This includes Hyperbolic FM (HFM) transmissions. This pulse type is also known as "chirp". It ensures a clutter free picture with very high resolution in range.
Page 14: System Diagram
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications The signal processing and beamforming is performed in a fast digital signal processing system using the full dynamic range of the signals. The SU90 system software operates using the Microsoft ® Windows ® operating system. System diagram The system diagram identifies the main components of a basic SU90 system.
Page 15: System Units
The display is not a standard part of the delivery. This is a commercial item that can be purchased locally. Kongsberg Maritime may provide a suitable display. The chosen display must be designed for maritime use, and it must meet the minimum performance specifications.
Page 16: Processor Unit Description
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Processor Unit description A dedicated maritime computer is provided. In this publication, the computer can also be referred to as the Processor Unit, and vice versa. The Processor Unit is a rugged and powerful computer. It is designed for long life in a demanding maritime environment.
Page 17: Transceiver Unit Description
Transceiver Unit. The heat exchanger also inhibits dust and dirt particles from entering the transceiver. The heat exchanger is powered from 230 VAC using a separate outlet. Related topics Simrad SU90, page 7 System units, page 13 396237/C...
Page 18: Hull Unit Description
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Hull Unit description The hull unit is used to lower the transducer down below the ship’s hull when the SU90 system shall be used. When the SU90 system is turned off, the transducer is hoisted for protection.
Page 19: Transducer Description
Related topics Simrad SU90, page 7 System units, page 13 Transducer description The cylindrical transducer allows the sonar beam to provide a full 360 degrees coverage of the water volume.
Page 20 Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Note The transducer is covered with a thick red or black protective coating made of a special plastic type. The protective coating is a vital part of the transducer. It is very important that neither this coating nor the internal parts of the transducer are damaged during the handling, installation or cleaning.
Page 21: Installation Trunk Description
In order to ensure proper operation of the SU90 system, the physical location of the installation trunk must be carefully selected. The installation trunk - with a blind flange - can be ordered from Kongsberg Maritime as an optional delivery. As an alternative, the installation trunk can be manufactured by the shipyard based on the drawings in this manual.
Page 22: Additional Required And Optional Items
In order to ensure proper operation of the SU90 system, the physical location of the installation trunk must be carefully selected. The installation trunk - with a blind flange - can be ordered from Kongsberg Maritime as an optional delivery. As an alternative, the installation trunk can be manufactured by the shipyard based on the drawings in this manual.
Page 23: Speed Log Requirement
Simrad SU90 Speed log requirement In order to operate correctly, the SU90 system requires input from a speed log. Unless specified in the contract, a speed log is not a part of the SU90 system delivery. Provided that a speed log sensor is interfaced to the SU90 system, the vessel’s current speed can be presented in the user interface.
Page 24: Operating Panel Option
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Note Make sure that the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) does not generate switching noise in the same frequency band as the SU90 system. To choose the best power solution for your installation, consider environmental conditions, the physical space available, the availability and duration of the batteries, and the power requirements of the SU90 system.
Page 25 Simrad SU90 Note Most global positioning system (GPS) can provide course information, but this data is generally too inconsistent to provide a stable presentation on the SU90 system. This inconsistency is especially noticeable at low vessel speeds. Incorrect course information can then result in settings not working properly.
Page 26: Scope Of Supply
Additional items are required for operation. These items must be added to the SU90 system for full operational functionality. Some items are optional. Such items can be purchased from Kongsberg Maritime or obtained locally. Basic items When you unpack the parts provided with the SU90 system delivery, make sure that the correct items are included.
Page 27: Order Information
Simrad SU90 Order information To order the SU90 system, or any of the optional items provided with it, contact your local dealer. If you do not have a regular dealer, a list of all our distributors and dealers can be found on our website.Your dealer will also be able to help you with a detailed quotation...
Page 28: General Safety Rules
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications General safety rules Safety is important. The safety precautions must be followed at all times during installation and maintenance work. WARNING The SU90 system operates on 115 VAC and/or 230 VAC at 50/60 Hz. This voltage is lethal! You must never work alone on high-voltage equipment! The hull unit is powered by a 3-phase high voltage.
Page 29 Simrad SU90 Cables Each electric cable must be handled carefully. This is important to avoid damage to the cable. This is also important to avoid electric shock in the event that the cable is unintentionally connected to a power source.
Page 30: Installation Requirements
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Installation requirements Topics Supply voltage requirements, page 28 Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) requirements, page 28 Cables and wiring requirements, page 29 Compass deviation requirements, page 29 Noise sources, page 29 Dry docking requirements, page 30 Requirement for classification approval, page 30 Supply voltage requirements The supply voltage must kept within ±10% of the installation’s nominal voltage.
Page 31: Cables And Wiring Requirements
Simrad SU90 One UPS system is required to supply the Processor Unit and the display. One UPS system is required to supply the Transceiver Unit. A single UPS system is sufficient if the power capacity is provided and long cable runs are avoided.
Page 32: Dry Docking Requirements
Simrad SU90 Technical specifications Roughness below the water-line deformities in the shell plating and protruding obstacles can create underwater noise. These sources of turbulence must be smoothed or removed as best as possible. Note It is especially important that the propeller(s) are not pitted or damaged.
Page 33: Network Security
The customer/end user of the SU90 system will always be in charge of defining and implementing a security, policy and providing the relevant network security applications. Note Kongsberg Maritime will not accept any responsibility for errors and/or damages caused by unauthorized use of or access to the SU90. 396237/C...
