SRC-3 Modes of Operation MC_0676 Sleipner Retract Controller (SRC-3) has two operational modes, Normal Operation and Service Mode. Operating actuators and thrusters during installation with personnel or other objects in proximity could cause serious personnel injury and impose damage to the unit. Therefore, power should always be disconnected from the SRC-3 when working on the retractable thruster or in the vicinity of the retract installation.

MC_0664 Plan the location of Sleipner Retract Controller (SRC-3) before starting with the electrical installation. Actuators are delivered with 5m cables. The SRC-3 must be mounted in a location that allows for connection of the actuator cables. Excessive cable lengths should be cut down to ensure an installation where the cables are properly laid out and fi xated to avoid cable chafi ng and being caught in moving parts.
