Context
Mechanical and electromechanical units may be heavy.
Hull units provided for sonar systems are provided with the transducer already mounted.
NoteThe transducer is a delicate item. Make sure that it is not exposed to physical damage during the storage, unpacking, lifting
and installation of the hull unit. The transducer is protected with a box shaped foam. Do not remove this protection until
the final stages of the hull unit installation.
A transducer must always be handled as a delicate instrument. Incorrect actions may damage the transducer beyond repair.
Observe these transducer handling rules:
|
• |
Do not activate the transducer when it is out of the water. |
|
• |
Do not handle the transducer roughly and avoid impacts. |
|
• |
Do not expose the transducer to direct sunlight or excessive heat. |
|
• |
Do not use high-pressure water, sandblasting, metal tools or strong solvents to clean the transducer face. |
|
• |
Do not damage the outer protective skin of the transducer. |
