Kongsberg EM 124 Multibeam echosounder Max. 11000 m, EM 712 Multibeam echosounder Operating instructions

  • Hello! I've reviewed the transducer painting instructions document which provides guidelines for proper anti-fouling paint application. The document outlines approved paint types from Jotun and International Marine Coatings, and specifies cleaning and application procedures to maintain transducer performance. I'm ready to answer any questions you have regarding the document.
  • Can I use any paint on the transducer?
    How should I clean the transducer face?
    What tools are needed for painting?
    Is it possible to use paintbrush or roller for painting transducer?
