Installation Installing the transducer The cabling must be done before installing the transducer. Context The transducer is mounted on the ship’s arrangement for the transducer. This may be on a pole lowered through a moon pool or a hull unit. The location of the transducer arrangement must be as far away as possible from thrusters, aerated water, noise sources or other equipment sensitive to acoustic noise in the water.
HiPAP 352P Instruction manual Procedure Open the unit by removing the four screws that secures the lid. Lift off the lid and see the four mounting holes, one in each corner. Mount the responder driver unit where suitable. The mounting screws with nuts and washers are delivered with the unit.

HiPAP 352P Instruction manual Installing the HiPAP 352P cables Installing the system cables To ensure correct use of cables and connectors, lubrication procedure and proper cable handling must be followed. Prerequisites This procedure includes all optional units. Use a repeater unit to amplify the signals when the transducer cable has to be longer than 70 metres.
Cabling 19 Connect the cable from the Responder Driver Unit to the interface unit. (C19) Connecting the Responder Driver Unit to the responder The Responder Driver Unit provides responder trigger signals to responders. These cables must be provided by the installation shipyard. Prerequisites The signal cables to the responder consists of 2 dsub connectors for electrical signals for responders 1–4 and four connectors for fibre optic connection to responders 5–8.
HiPAP 352P Instruction manual Preventive maintenance schedule In order to secure a long and trouble-free operation of the HiPAP 352P system, certain specific preventive maintenance tasks must be done.
