Gland installation for wood or GRP hulled vessels
A bronze cable gland kit is available for wood and GRP vessels.
(A) = Packing nipple. Make
sure that you do not damage the
transducer cable by tightening
the packing nipple too hard!
(B) = Washers
(C) = Rubber gaskets
(D) = Hole diameter 28 mm
(E) = Steel conduit
(F) = Cable to the echo
sounder (or a junction box)
The gland gland kit includes all
of the necessary parts needed to
install the unit excluding
screws.
Simrad recommends that a one
inch steel conduit (that the
transducer cable will be run
through) with an inside
threaded diameter of
three-quarter inches is attached
to the gland’s packing nipple.
This connection must be
watertight, and the conduit must
extend to above the vessel’s
water line.
