Page 9: Towed Body Design
TOWED BODY DESIGN The towed body used to hold the ES333-7CD Split-beam transducer is not provided by Simrad. The design and manufacturing of such a body must be made by your own organisation, or by a third party you wish to engage to do this. - Page 10 Simrad ES333-7CD the sound energy, and may in worst cases block the sound transmission totally. Therefore, design the towed body so that it can operate in deep water. Caution Observe the maximum operational depth of the transducer. Do not exceed this limitation.

The bolts withstand Emuge self-lock vibrations better than standard (metric) threads, because the thread contact stops the sideways movement. The special design of the internal thread profile also provides a more even distribution of the tightening stress over the whole thread length.
- Page 18 Simrad ES333-7CD • Internal threads can be produced with taps, cold Emuge forming taps or thread mills • Larger thread hole diameters, i.e. increased tool life for threading tools • Larger tolerances for thread hole diameters Drawing standard Whenever self-locking threads are required, this is shown on the technical drawing.

Page 20: Transducer Cable Splicing
If you need to cut or lengthen the transducer cable, you must splice it correctly. The cable between the junction box and the transceiver must then be supplied by Simrad, and this must be the same type as used on the transducer(s). To splice the cable, use a metal junction box with EMC cable glands and a terminal block. -
Page 21: Steel Conduit
Steel conduit STEEL CONDUIT Why use steel conduits with a towed body? It is strongly recommended to lay a steel conduit from the connection point of the tow cable to the echo sounder transceiver, and to pull the transducer cable through this conduit. There are several reasons for this. -
