Simrad Echo sounder transducers
HANDLING AND MAINTENANCE
38
Note
Do not lift the transducer by the cable.
Do not expose the transducer to direct sunlight.
Do not expose the transducer to excessive heat.
Some transducers are delivered with a cover plate on the face
for protection during transport. Let this plate stay on as long as
possible, but do not forget to remove it before the vessel goes
into the sea.
An anti-fouling paint may be applied to the transducer face.
Because some paint types may be aggressive to the polyurethane
in the transducer face, please consult Simrad's list of approved
paints.
Note
Arctic tanks have acoustic windows made of polycarbonate.
These must neither be painted nor cleaned with chemicals.
During dry docking of the vessel, the transducer face may be
cleaned for shells and other marine fouling. Be careful not to
make cuts in the transducer face. Use a piece of wood or a very
fine grade emery paper.
