The network sounder can be installed on the deck or on the bulkhead. When selecting a 
mounting location for the network sounder, keep the following in mind: 
 

• 

The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable. 

• 

Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.

 

• 

The mounting location should be well ventilated.

 

• 

Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.

 

•  Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field-generating equipment such as motors 

and generators. 

•  Leave slack in cables for maintenance and servicing ease. 
•  A magnetic compass will be affected if the network sounder placed too close to the 

magnetic compass. Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent 
disturbance to the magnetic compass: 

a)  Standard compass: 0.80 meters 

b)  Steering compass: 0.55 meters 

 

Fasten the network sounder to the mounting location with four tapping screws (4 x 16). 
 
Note: Do not install the equipment where it may get wet from rain or water splash. 

Waterproof level is IPX2 (IEC 60529).
