Installing the Transducer

D.
Align the hinge base to the holes on the right side of the conduit cable
bracket and slip ring. Rotate the hinge coupling and tube 90° to access
the top hole.
Secure the hinge base with the four M5 X 0.8 mm fasteners.
Lubricate the fasteners with Molykote g-n paste and torque to 6.5 N•m
(56 lbf•in).
E.
Rotate the anti-rotate tube parallel to the cable conduit bracket.
Secure the cable to the cable conduit bracket using tie-wraps through
the holes in the bracket.
Use tie-wraps to also secure the cable to the anti-rotate tube.
4. For front rim configurations (see the next figure): Attach the slip-ring
bracket with the slip ring, conduit bracket, and restraint tube to the
transducer.
A.
The slip-ring bracket fits over the 9-pin connectors on the front of the
transducer at the locations labeled Board A and Board B. The slip-ring
bracket is similarly labeled to prevent connecting it the wrong way.
Note
Use care when installing the slip-ring bracket. The 9-pin connectors are
keyed. The slip-ring bracket should be fitted on straight (without bending
or angling it) to make sure it engages all four connectors simultaneously
and evenly.
B.
Lubricate the threads and under the bolt heads of the four M8 X 1.25
mm bolts with Molykote g-n paste. Insert them through the mounting
hole in the slip-ring bracket and thread them into the transducer. Torque
each to 27 N•m (20 lbf•ft).
