3. INSTALLATION
! Failure to follow the following installation guidelines may cause the EPIRB1 Pro to
operate incorrectly.
! Do not mount the EPIRB1 Pro closer than 1.0 metre to any steering compass as
this may affect the accuracy of the compass.
! Keep the EPIRB1 Pro away from any strong magnetic sources such as
loudspeakers, compass compensation magnets, etc.
3.1 Location
The location selected must be suffi ciently robust to support the weight of the entire unit.
Exposure to the elements and surrounding hazards along with vibration should also be
taken into consideration when choosing the location. Ensure that the mounting location
allows easy access to the EPIRB1 Pro for maintenance and servicing.
To ensure that the EPIRB1 Pro will always fl oat free from the sinking vessel ensure that the
fl oat free housing is located high up on the superstructure, free from any obstructions and
located in a position that it will not be trapped, regardless of the angle the sinking vessel
may be in. Always leave at least 150mm (6”) around the Float Free Housing to ensure the
cover releases reliably.
