This will usually be installed near the transducer, to allow a defective transducer to be replaced
without having to replace the complete cabling to the Display and Control Unit. The connection box
must be made of metallic material.
3.2.3 TRANSDUCER
The transducer converts electrical energy to sound energy and transmits this towards the sea bed.
Sound energy returning from the sea bed, in the form of echoes, is converted into electrical energy
by the transducer and fed to the Display and Control Unit for evaluation and presentation.
