Safety featuresThe cNODE MiniS LF has a safety valve for releasing pressure that might build upinside the transponder.

Pressure relief valve

The transponder is fitted with a pressure relief valve at the bottom of the unit. Therelief valve prevents overpressure. This valve will release the pressure if it exceedsapproximately 1.0 bar.

The relief valve will normally pop out gently releasing the pressure. The valve is resetby firmly pushing the valve back in and is levelled with the surrounding surface.

Resetting the valve can in certain cases be obstructed due to production of acids and saltsleaking from a damaged battery. In such cases the battery and circuits may have beendamaged. Please contact Kongsberg Maritime for assistance.

Handling a transponder with an open relief valve or heated body

If the transponder body is hot when recovered, place the transponder fully submergedin a bucket of water for 24 hours or deploy into the sea permanently. If this method isimpossible, the transponder can be cooled with lots of cold water using a fire hose.

If the transponder pressure relief valve emits gas or liquids when recovered, place thetransponder fully submerged in a bucket of water for 24 hours or deploy into the seapermanently. If this method is impossible, the transponder can be cooled with lots ofcold water using a fire hose.

General acousticconsiderations

Take this information into consideration when deploying the transponders.

Acoustic range

The depth rating should not be confused with acoustic range. The acoustic range isdependent on many factors, and some of the factors are outside control of the user.

Vessel system

The directivity and coverage area for the vessel system is different, depending on whichsystem you are using. Some systems have high directivity and omnidirectional coverage,while other systems has reduced coverage and less directivity. The transponder shouldalways be within the coverage cone of the vessel system.

Transducer type

There are different types of transducers used on the transponders. An omnidirectionaltransducer, such as a TD180, covers a large area, but has less acoustic power comparedto a focused transducer, such as TD50V. A focused signal gives less footprint/coverage.The vessel should always be within the signal footprint of the transponder.

Tx Power

The ability to detect signals depends on the signal strength. The transmission power canbe adjusted, both for the vessel system and for the transponder.

Acoustic noise

Acoustic noise is present at all vessels. At given conditions, the noise level can beexcessive. Acoustic noise is caused by main propellers and thrusters, and in someinstances also from machinery/pumps on board. Heavy propeller/thruster use or alsowaves can also generate air bubbles, which can get in front of the vessel transducer andblock the acoustic signal.


458122/A 27

Sound velocity and ray bending

Changes in sound velocity through the water column caused by changes in the watertemperature and/or salinity can bend the acoustic signal and make it impossible to reachthe vessel.
