10.If the bottom is displayed in dark gray and the depth indication appears, the mounting location is suitable. Go to “Final preparation.”

11.If the bottom is not displayed in dark gray tone, the mounting location may be unsuitable. Do the following:

a)Press the [POWER/BRILL] key to turn off the power.

b)Gently dismount the transducer with a piece of wood.

c)Reattach the transducer elsewhere as shown in “Attaching the transducer.”

d)Check the installation again.

Final preparation

Support the transducer with a piece of wood to keep it in place while it is drying. Let the transducer dry 24-72 hours.

Triducer 525ST-MSD

525ST-PWD

The Transom Mount Transducer or TRIDUCER® Multisensor with Integral Release Bracket 525ST-PWD is manufactured by AIRMAR Co. These instructions are included with the sensor.

Pre-test for speed and temperature

Connect the sensor to the instrument and spin the paddlewheel. Check for a speed reading and the approximate air temperature. If there is no reading, return the sensor to your place of purchase.

Tools and materials needed

Scissors Masking tape Safety goggles Dust mask Electric drill Drill bit for:

Bracket holes: 4mm, #23, or 9/64”

Fiberglass hull: chamfer bit (preferred), 6mm, or 1/4”

Transom hole: 19mm or 3/4” (optional)

Cable clamp holes: 3mm or 1/8” Screwdrivers

Straight edge Marine sealant Pencil Zip-ties

Water-based antifouling paint (mandatory in salt water).

Mounting location

To ensure the best performance, the sensor must be submerged in aeration-free and turbulence-free water. Mount the sensor close to the centerline of the boat. On slower heavier displacement hulls, positioning it farther from the centerline is acceptable.

Allow adequate space above the bracket for it to release and rotate the sensor upward.
