Installing Slant Range Sensors

You need to install Slant Range sensors in pockets welded to the trawl doors.

Before you begin

To install Slant Range sensors on the doors, you need to have specifically designed sensor pockets welded to the trawl doors. See Installing Sensor Pockets.

Procedure

  1. Remove the screw holding the pocket cover.
  2. Install Slant Range sensors inside each door pocket: the top of the transducer (side with marker on housing) must be oriented toward the vessel.

  3. Attach the safety line from the sensor to the pocket and fasten the pocket's screw.
  4. Make sure there is nothing in front of the sensors that would block their signal toward the vessel.
