Ventilation
The sonar room should preferably be connected to the ship’s
ventilation system. If this is not possible, two 3-inch vent pipes
must be laid from the sonar room to free air on deck. The air
inlet should be close to the floor, while the outlet should be
placed as high as possible. Funnels should be mounted below
the vent pipes to collect condensed water.
To ensure the best possible ventilation, the outlet pipe should
run at least 4 meters higher than the inlet pipe. To keep rain and
water splash out, the pipes should be fitted with goosenecks or
cowls.
Cable pipes
If the cable between the wheelhouse and the sonar room passes
through hatches or places where it can be damaged, it should be
run through pipes (2” pipes are recommended).
Air vent pipe
An air vent pipe with a minimum of 10 mm internal diameter
must be fitted to the air bleeding cock on the Hull Unit. The
pipe should be laid with continuous rise to free air on deck or
out through the ship s side.
Bilge pump
The sonar room should be connected to the ship’s main bilge
pump system. If this is not possible, a separate bilge pump for
the sonar room must be installed.
Lighting
To simplify the installation and future maintenance, the sonar
room should be equipped with suitable lighting.
Docking
Make sure that there is ample space below the keel for mounting
the hull system, when docking the vessel.
To facilitate future docking, mark the position of the trunk as
indicated in figure 1.
Flooring
When the installation is completed, the sonar room should be
suitably floored.
