Simrad ES70

Receipt, unpacking and storage

Upon accepting shipment of the equipment, the shipyard and/or the dealer should ensure
that the delivery is complete and inspect each shipping container for evidence of physical
damage. If this inspection reveals any indication of crushing, dropping, immersion in
water or any other form of damage, the recipient should request that a representative
from the company used to transport the equipment be present during unpacking.
All equipment should be inspected for physical damage, i.e. broken controls and
indicators, dents, scratches etc. during unpacking. If any damage to the equipment is
discovered, the recipient should notify both the transportation company and Simrad so
that Simrad can arrange for replacement or repair of the damaged equipment.
Once unpacked, the equipment must be stored in a controlled environment with an
atmosphere free of corrosive agents, excessive humidity or temperature extremes. The
equipment must be covered to protect it from dust and other forms of contamination
when stored.

General installation requirements

The following installation requirements are applicable to this Simrad delivery.

Approval by classification society

The Simrad ES70 transducer installation must be approved by Det Norske Veritas (DNV)
or another classification society. The shipowner and shipyard performing the installation
are responsible for obtaining installation approval.

Supply power

The supply voltage to the equipment is to be kept within ±10% of the installation's
nominal voltage. Maximum transient voltage variations on the main switchboard's
bus-bars are not to exceed -15% to +20% of the nominal voltage (except under fault
conditions).
Simrad recommends that the Simrad ES70 is powered using an Uninterruptable Power
Supply (UPS) with sine wave output. The UPS must have the capacity to independently
maintain power to the system for a minimum of 10 minutes. This ensures that the system
can be switched off in a controlled manner in the event of a power failure.

Compass deviation

Once the installation is complete, the vessel must be swung with the system in both
the operative and inoperative modes. The shipowner and captain are responsible for
updating the deviation table accordingly with regard to the vessel's national registry and
corresponding maritime authority.
