required, these must be approved by the applicable authorities.
Installing the subsea transducer
Purpose
This procedure explains how to install the subsea transducer.
Procedure
1
The two transducers must be mounted on the valve framework. The transducers
must be located at opposite sides of the valve package, and must be positioned such
that they have a clear line of sight to the surface. They should be located as far
away from the valve structure and other reflective surfaces as possible to reduce the
effects of acoustic shadowing and echoes.
Note
The subsea transducer should be positioned minimum 2.5 metres from the valve
structure.
2
Prepare the location and the necessary tools.
• See the
on page 110 and your transducer for location of the holes.
3
Secure the transducer with six M6 bolts, nuts and spring washers.
Note
These bolts are not provided as the types and lengths will depend on the thickness
and material of the mounting structure.
