Note The location of the sonar trunk and/or protection blister must be noted on the vessel’s docking plan for future reference. Wiring The cable from the wheelhouse to the sonar room must be supported and protected along its entire length using conduits and/or cable trays.
Introduction 1.8 Equipment handling Introduction This chapter describes how to transport, pack and unpack, clean, preserve and store electronic, electro-mechanical and mechanical units supplied by Simrad AS. The units may be supplied as spare parts, or as parts of a delivery.
Simrad SH80 Heavy units may be equipped with lifting lugs for transportation by crane within the workshop or installation area. Before a crane is used, check: • The applicable weight certificate for the crane. • The security of the lifting lugs. Ensure that all available lifting lugs are used. Ensure the unit remains under control during the operation to avoid damage to the unit, equipment or personnel. Heavy units may be transported using a fork-lift truck.
Introduction 7 → - “Special circumstances” may be suspected damage to the crate and its content, or inspections by civil authorities. - If any units are damaged, prepare an inspection report stating the condition of the unit and actions taken. Describe the damage and collect photographic evidence if possible. Re-preserve the equipment. - If the units are not damaged, check the humidity absorbing material. If required, dry or replace the bags, then repack the unit(s) according to the packing instructions.
Simrad SH80 Inspection and unpacking Inspection An inspection must be carried out immediately after the unit(s) have arrived at their destination. • Check all wooden or cardboard boxes, plastic bags and pallets for physical damage. Look for signs of dropping, immersion in water or other mishandling. • If damage is detected externally, you will have to open the packaging to check the contents.
Introduction • If the carton has been closed using staples, remove the staples from the carton as you open it. This will reduce the possibilities of scratch injury to yourself and damage to the contents. • If a wooden crate has been closed using screws, always remove them using a screw-driver. Do not attempt to prise the lid off with a crow-bar or similar. • Once the carton is open, carefully remove all loose packing and insulation material.
Simrad SH80 The transducer face must be protected by a rigid, padded cover (e.g. a wooden box lined with foam rubber) all the time it is exposed to the risk of physical damage. Note Once the units are unpacked, great care must be taken to ensure that transducers and cabling are not exposed to any mechanical stress. Re-packing If the unit is not to be installed immediately, re-pack it in its original packing material to prevent damage in the intervening period. → 1.9 Refer to the information on page 20.
Introduction Cleaning cabinets If the unit may have been exposed to salt atmosphere while it was in use, it must be thoroughly cleaned both internally and externally to prevent corrosion. • Wipe the cabinet externally using a damp cloth and a little detergent. Do not use excessive amounts of water as the unit may not be water tight. On completion, dry the unit thoroughly. • All surfaces must be inspected for signs of corrosion, eg. flaking/bubbling paint, stains etc.
Simrad SH80 • All surfaces must be inspected for signs of corrosion, eg. flaking/bubbling paint, stains etc. Damaged or suspect areas must be cleaned, prepared and preserved using the correct preservation mediums. The mediums to be used will normally be defined in the unit’s maintenance manual. Cables Wipe clean all exposed cables, and check for damage. If a cable shows signs of wear or ageing, contact Simrad for advice.
Introduction • Large units must be placed in a suitable cardboard box or wooden crate. The unit must be protected against physical damage by means of shock-absorbing insulation mats. The box must be clearly marked with its contents, and must be stored in a dry and dust-free area. • Ensure that the resulting unit is weather proof as required by the current and expected environment.
Simrad SH80 Caution If, for any reason, it is necessary to move the circuit board or components from the conductive service mat, they must be placed in an approved anti-static transportation container (e.g. static shielding bag) before transportation. • During installation and servicing, all electrical equipment (soldering irons, test equipment etc.) must be earthed.
Installation planning 2 INSTALLATION PLANNING Note 2.1 For installation in a previously installed trunk system, first read the information about sonar room requirements. Then, proceed to the Hull Unit installation. → Sonar room requirements are described on page 26. → Installation of the hull unit is described on page 35. General This chapter provides the marine engineers responsible the information necessary to plan and install the sonar’s Hull Unit according to Simrad’s requirements.
Simrad SH80 2.2 Location of the Hull Unit Fore and aft The Hull Unit should preferably be located within 1/10 to 1/3 the vessel’s Length Between Perpendiculars (LBP) measured from its Forward Perpendicular (FP). Deviations from this rule should not be made without consulting Simrad. → The location of the hull unit is indicated in figure 2. Athwartships The Hull Unit may be located on the Centre Line (CL) of the vessel, or alongside its keel.
Installation planning • Overboard discharges • Dents in the hull All appendages to the hull, indentations and pipe in/outlets are potential sources of underwater noise. They may act as resonant cavities amplifying noise at certain frequencies, create cavitation or turbulence. Transducers should not be located in the vicinity of such objects and especially not immediately aft of them.
Simrad SH80 2.3 Sonar room requirements Size The sonar room must be dimensioned to house both the Hull and the Transceiver Unit. This is due to the limited length of the flexible hose protected cabling (approximately 3.5 m) connecting the two. A well designed sonar room reduces the risk of corrosion and simplifies maintenance increasing system reliability. The sonar room should not be unnecessarily obstructed by girders, pipes etc. which might cause installation problems or impede maintenance.
Installation planning In the sonar room, the air inlet should be located in close to the deck and the outlet as high as possible. A funnel shaped drip-collector should be mounted below the vent pipes to divert moisture to the bilge. On the main deck, the best ventilation is provided when the outlet pipe is at least four meters higher than the inlet pipe. To keep out sea water, rain and spray, the ventilation pipes should be fitted with goosenecks of the equivalent.

Simrad SH80 4.3 Mounting The Hull Unit should normally be oriented with the hoisting/lowering motor pointing aft. BOW (CD5894) Figure 10 Recommended orientation of the SH80 Hull Unit If this orientation makes the motor control unit attached to the Hull Unit difficult to access, the Hull Unit may be oriented in the most suitable position. Note The Motor Control Unit must never be disconnected from the Hull Unit. Observe the following procedure.
Hull unit 4.4 Mechanical support To ensure the safety of the sonar system and the vessel, it is very important that the mechanical support of the hull unit gantry is satisfactory. The Hull Unit is designed to be operated in its lower position while the vessel maintains a speed not to exceed 20 knots. To prevent unwanted vortex induced vibration, the Hull Unit must be secured to the bulkhead. Use the two thread holes on the gantry to attach stays both in the fore-and-aft and side ways direction.
Simrad SH80 4.5 Transducer alignment Note that the transducer should not be mechanically aligned even though the Hull Unit is oriented differently than shown. Transducer alignment will be later performed in the Processor Unit by rotating the echo presentation in the Processor Unit.
Hull unit 4.6 Installation check-list Refer to section Sonar room requirements when you fill in the following check list.
Simrad SH80 5 TRANSCEIVER UNIT Introduction Note The Transceiver Unit must be mounted as a complete unit, i.e. the door should not be opened until the unit is securely fastened to the bulkhead. Before mounting the Transceiver Unit, observe that the distance between the Hull Unit and the Transceiver Unit is restricted by the flexible transducer cable joining the two. Remember to take into consideration the slack necessary to lower the transducer.

Simrad SH80 7.6 Basic cabling requirements Cable trays All permanently installed cables associated with the system must be supported and protected along their entire lengths using conduits and/or cable trays. The only exception to this rule is over the final short distance (max. 0.5 metre) as the cables run into the cabinets/units to which they are connected. These short unsupported lengths are to allow the cabinets to move on their shock mounts, and to allow maintenance and replacements.
Cable layout and connections Radio Frequency interference All cables that are to be permanently installed within 9 m (30 ft) of any source of Radio Frequency (RF) interference such as a transmitter aerial system or radio cabin, must, unless shielded by a metal deck or bulkhead, be adequately screened by sheathing, braiding or other suitable material. In such a situation flexible cables should be screened wherever possible.
Simrad SH80 Metallic casings, pipes and conduits must be grounded, and when fitted with joints these must be mechanically and electrically grounded. Cable connections All cable connections are shown on the applicable cable plan and interconnection diagrams. Where the cable plan shows cable connections outside an equipment box outline, the connections are to be made to a plug or socket which suits the plug or socket on that particular item of equipment.
Connecting peripheral equipment 8 PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT 8.1 General Introduction It is not necessary to make the connection of the peripheral equipment before the start-up procedure is finished, and this equipment may therefore be connected later. However, do not connect the termination plugs for the auxiliary equipment to the Sonar Interface Unit before mentioned in a later chapter. Required inputs The SH80 sonar system requires input from both a speed log and a course gyro.
Simrad SH80 Physical connections to the Sonar Interface Unit The figure below shows the positions for the different auxiliary connections on the Sonar Interface Unit. (CD7014) Figure 26 Serial line connections to the Sonar Interface Unit TB4 TB8 TB1, TB2 and TB3 in the top row TB5, TB6 and TB7 in the bottom row TB1 through TB7 are all RS-232 serial line connections. These may be used for any of the serial line auxiliary inputs.
Connecting peripheral equipment 8.2 Speed log connection Overview The sonar can read the speed information from one of the following three sources (tick off for the type which will be connected): • Pulse log (200 pulses/nautical mile) • Speed log with RS-232 serial line output • (D)GPS serial line (RS-232) The connection of these different sources are described in the following chapters.
Simrad SH80 Speed log with RS-232 output The sonar can also read the speed log data from a RS-232 serial line with a standard NMEA 0183 telegram format. The telegram can contain both the speed and the course data. Refer to the cable connection drawing for termination of the serial line data in the Sonar Interface Unit. → Refer to drawing on page 159. For connection to the speed log, refer to the applicable log documentation.
Connecting peripheral equipment 8.3 Course gyro connection Overview The SH80 sonar can read the course information from an RS-232 serial line. In case where only a 3-phase synchro or stepper signal is available, an optional Gyro Interface Unit must be used for converting these signals to RS-232 serial line format. → More information about the Gyro Interface Unit can be found on page 7.
Simrad SH80 8.4 (D)GPS connection A (D)GPS may be connected to the SH80 sonar to indicate the latitude and longitude position of the vessel, cursor, markers and targets. In addition to the navigational data, the (D)GPS may also be used for the input of the speed log information. Most (D)GPS systems are equipped to present the course information, but this data is generally too inconsistent to provide a stable sonar presentation.
Connecting peripheral equipment 8.5 Echo sounder connection To provide depth information on the sonar, an echo sounder with standard NMEA 0183 output format (RS-232 serial line) may be connected. Most Simrad echo sounders have the depth output available on an RS-232 serial line. Refer to the cable connection drawing for termination of the serial line data in the Sonar Interface Unit. → Refer to the drawing on page 159.
Simrad SH80 8.6 Trawl system connection The SH80 sonar can read the trawl data from a Simrad FS Trawl sonar or ITI (Integrated Trawl Instrumentation) system. The communication is achieved using a RS-232 serial line. When connecting the FS Trawl sonar to the SH80 Sonar Interface Unit the trawl depth will automatically be shown in accordance with the surface, targets and bottom in the vertical modes on the sonar.
Connecting peripheral equipment 8.7 Purse seine system connection To provide purse seine depth information on the sonar’s display, Simrad PI30 Purse seine system may be connected.
