Transducer(s)
The cables described in this chapter are used to connect the
General Purpose Transceiver (GPT) to one or more transducers.
The following transducer types may be used:
• Single frequency, single beam
• Single frequency, dual beam (wide and narrow)
• Dual frequency, single beam (combi)
For the majority of the transducers, the cables are supplied from
the manufacturer. These are normally physically fastened to the
transducer.
Note The distance between the General Purpose Transceiver (GPT)
and the transducer(s) must be as short as possible to avoid
interference and noise.
If the distance between the transducer and the transceiver
exceeds the length of the cable, a junction box must be used.
The cable between the junction box and the transceiver must
then be supplied by Kongsberg Maritime, and this must be the
same type as used on the transducer(s).
Note All transducer cables must be run in steel conduits. Use flexible
conduit close to the transceiver.
Note Cable shields must be connected to the plug housing. The
shields must not be connected to ship’s ground anywhere
between the transducer and the plug on the transceiver.
Observe the cabling diagrams.
