8 BULKHEAD BRACKET INSTALLATION
8.1 Siting
The bulkhead bracket should ideally be sited in plain view near an emergency exit.
When choosing a suitable mounting position you should also consider:
• Ease of access in an emergency.
• Mount at least 1 metre (3’) from any compass equipment.
• If there is any likelihood of the EPIRB being replaced in its bracket after
activation then ensure that the antenna has as clear a view of the sky as
possible.
8.2 Mounting procedure
The bulkhead bracket is supplied with four stainless steel screws 25mm (1”) in length.
The bracket mounts against a flat surface using 4 fixing points. Offer the bracket into
the chosen position and mark through the mounting slots and drill 3mm (1/8”) holes.
