12-16/60 Transducer - Simrad ES70 - INSTALLATION REV A Installation Manual

Simrad ES70

12-16/60 transducer

This is the termination of the transducer cable from the 12–16/60 single or dual beam
transducer to the transducer socket on the General Purpose Transceiver Unit (GPT). The
other end of the cable is permanently fixed to the transducer.
Note
Always check the transmit power if wide beam is selected in order not to exceed the
power capacity on the transducer.
If you need to splice the transducer cable, it is very important to use the correct cable,
and to avoid ground loops. We strongly recommend the use of a junction box. We also
recommend that you install the transducer cable in a steel conduit.
