Checking the dunking transducer
Purpose
This procedure explains how to check the dunking transducer for defects.
Procedure
1
Ensure that the transducer face is clean and free of defects.
2
Check that the retaining strap is in good condition and will prevent the transducer
from falling out of its holder during transport.
3
Check that the connector on the surface end is in good condition and the rubber
seal is fitted.
4
Ensure that the protective cap is connected to the drum and is fitted to the surface
connector when the unit is not in use.
5
Put a few drops of oil on the drum and roller bearings, around the winding handle
and on the break screw thread. This will help prevent corrosion and ensure
trouble-free operation when the unit is required.
6
Check the lifting strop and look for cuts, frays and other damage.
