CHCNAV D390 ECHO SOUNDER

The CHCNAV D390 is an integrated single-beam echo sounder, intended for hydrographic and bathymetric surveying. It has a 200 kHz transducer with a 7° beam angle, a sounding rate of up to 60 Hz, a 12" touchscreen and an aluminium alloy enclosure with an IP66 ingress protection rating. The weight is 4.7 kg, the external power supply is 10–30 V DC and the maximum consumption is 25 W. It connects to GNSS receivers and motion sensors through serial interfaces. It is intended for professional use only, by trained persons. It is not a toy.

Warnings:

• Read the manufacturer's documentation before mounting and use.
• Use only the original or manufacturer-recommended power supply, cables and accessories, within the 10–30 V DC range. Observe polarity when connecting.
• Do not operate the transducer in air for long periods. Operating without contact with water can damage the transducer. Mount it firmly, facing the water, on a suitable support.
• Secure the equipment and the transducer so that they cannot fall or be torn off while the vessel is moving. Route cables so that they are not crushed, pulled or bent excessively.
• The IP66 rating protects against dust and powerful water jets, not against immersion. Do not immerse the main unit. Protect the connectors from water and keep the equipment away from excessive moisture.
• Use the equipment only within the temperature range specified by the manufacturer and keep it away from strong heat and prolonged direct sunlight.
• Use on board vessels involves risks (falling into the water, bad weather, electrical installations). Follow marine safety rules and wear life-saving equipment.
• Do not touch the face of the transducer while it is powered.
• Measurement accuracy depends on environmental conditions (water temperature and salinity, underwater vegetation, the bottom), the speed of sound and the transducer mounting. Check the results before using them in critical work.
• Do not disassemble or modify the equipment. Do not use it if the housing or cables are damaged.
• Do not dispose of the equipment with household waste. Take it to a waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) collection point.
• Keep out of reach of children.
