1. Introduction
1.1 Function
The JRC Model JLN-550 Doppler Sonar is an equipment for measuring the bottom tracking speed and water
tracking speed, utilizing the reflection of the ultrasonic wave signal from the sea bottom or in the seawater,
which are radiated downward obliquely from the transducer with which the hull bottom is installed.

This equipment measures in two directional speed of bow and stern line direction of the ship, and right and left
direction in the bow.

The right and left direction speed of stern is calculated by using the ROT(Rate of turn gyro) signal. (Three axis
type)

The navigation route distance is multiplied and displayed.

The JLN-550 conforms to the IMO (International Maritime Organization) performance standards, provides
accurate displays of ship’s speed over a wide range from dead slow to maximum.

(Note the bow mark of cover board.)

16
・ Put NKF-770 transducer on the mounting plate.
・ Do not lift the main body of transducer by gripping the cable. It causes the disconnection.

Banding band

・ Pass the cable through the tank.

・ Do not detach banding band that is attached to the cable. Pull and raise the cable to the place where
banding G band touches the tank.

17
・ Note that there might be the disconnection when the cable is pulled with being twisted.
・ The spacer uses rubber of 10mm in thickness. And, the cover board uses the iron plate of 12mm in
thickness.

18
・ Lift transducer of each cover board, and fix temporary by hexagon head bolt M8×20 and several M8 spring
washers.

・ Detach all screw rod of M8×500.

Bow mark

19
・ Formally tighten cover board with hexagon head bolt M8×20 and the M8 spring washer, and fill the resin to
the counterbored hole.

20
・ Do not fill the resin within the range of the seawater invasion in the tank interior.
You may spread the resin on the space between the cover board and the main body of the tank.
Fill the resin such as Silicone Bond, etc. to counterbored hole for the installation bolt of the cover board.

Do not fill the resin

within the range of the
seawater invasion.

Possible to spread the resin.

After tightening, fill polyester putty,
Silicone Bond or asphalt. (shipyard)

21
・ Tighten until tightening GLAND becomes 5mm from the upper surface of the tank.
・ Do not bend, and install the acute angle with the standing up part of the cable.
Do the wiring processing in the cable standing up part so as not to swing by the vibration.
Do not pull the cable strongly in the state of kink (It tangles, and twisted state).
・ Parallel Pipe Threads G1(PF1) JIS B0202 is used for the waterproof securing of the screw portion of gland.

An acute angle bend is prohibited strictly.

bow in order with low frequency.
・ Install it to be suitable for the direction of the bow in parallel to the bow tail line of bow mark of the
transducer within about 3°.

2.8 Piping
・ Give the piping waterproofed to a position that is higher than the sea-level in preparation for "Cable
protection and interference prevention from other cables" and "Water leak from a tightening gland part".
・ Do the vibration prevention measures and the self-weight hold measures of the cable if necessary by
packing the dry sand etc. in piping.
・ Fix the cable so as not to vibrate when installing it in the watertight compartment.
・ Do not pull the cable strongly in the state of kink (It tangles, and twisted state) when laying the cable.
・ Secure 100mm or more for the cable bend radius.
・ A cable acute angle bend in the gland exit part is strict prohibition.
・ Fix at intervals within 1m so as not to put the load on the cable or give piping to a position that is higher than
the sea level.
・ Fix the cable so as not to vibrate.
・ Separate from the cable of Echo Sounder by 0.5m or more for the interference prevention.

2.9 Final Check
Quality confirmation of transducer when installing
1) Phenomenon to generate in the equipment
The quality of the transducer was not confirmed before the trial. And, the trial was done without knowing
the thing that the transducer has been damaged.
Therefore, the case that becomes a big problem has been generated.
2) Concrete content of work
To confirm whether transducer is normal before the ship is launched, carry out the following work: [1.
Confirmation of insulation resistance and thermistor, 2. Confirmation of the resonance frequency of
transducer].

1. Confirmation of insulation resistance and thermistor

1-1 Remove the transducer cable from the terminal TB3 of Signal Processing (NJC-24).
1-2 Measure the insulation resistance between each TD1-TD6 element interval and shield using 500V
megger.
1-3 Measure the resistance of thermistor TH by the multimeter. (Do not measure TH by megger.)
Measurement result
-1 Transducer and the transducer cable are normal for 50MΩ or more between elements, 10MΩ or more
between the element and the shield wire, and 10MΩ or more between the shield wire and the hull.
-2 The value of the thermistor is normal for 4-50kΩ. (Measurements are different depending on the
temperature.)

2. Check the resonance frequency of transducer

2-1 Remove the transducer cable from the terminal TB3 of Signal Processor (NJC-24).
2-2 Measure each transducer by using antenna analyzer (AA-30).
2-3 After setting antenna analyzer (AA-30) to the SWR mode, sweep 240kHz±200kHz for TD1-TD4, and
2MHz±500kHz for TD5 and TD6.
2-4 The Dip point of the sweep figure (point that the signal becomes minimum) shows the resonance
frequency.
Measurement result
-1 When TD1-TD4 have the dip point in the vicinity of 240KHz and TD5 and TD6 have the dip point in the
vicinity of 2MHz, the resonance frequency of the transducer is normal. (The sweep figure is different
according to the channel.)
-2 When there is no Dip point in the result of the measurement, it is poor engagement of the underwater
connector, or defective of the transducer. When the underwater connector is a poor engagement, engage
an underwater connector in the transducer tank completely. When transducer is defective, replace the
transducer.

2.10 Replacing Guide of the Transducer
1. Remove the resin filled to the installation hole of the cover board.
2. Detach ①hexagon bolt M8X20 3-4 places, and install all screw rod (M8X500) and fall prevention nuts (NB)
to the place. (local arrangements)
3. After ①hexagon head bolt M8X20 of the remainder is detached, lower cover board slowly below while
loosening the fall prevention nut manually.
4. When you pull out the transducer from the tank, do not add strong power to the cable.
(Do not hang the cable of the transducer gripping it. It causes the cable disconnection.)
5. After detaching hexagon bolt M5X12 2 places, detach connector metal fittings A.

protection and interference prevention from other cables" and "Water leak from a tightening gland part".
・ Do the vibration prevention measures and the self-weight hold measures of the cable if necessary by
packing dry sand etc. in piping.
・ Fix the cable so as not to vibrate when installing it in the watertight compartment.
・ Do not pull the cable strongly in the state of kink (It tangles, and twisted state) when you lay the cable.
・ Secure enough maintenance space to be able to do the transducer replacing work etc.
・ Separate from the cable of the echo sounder by 0.5m or more for the interference prevention.

This chapter shows the procedure when exchanging it in the sea for the transducer damage after beginning to
operate it.
Carry the gas detector to confirm enough oxygen is secured when it goes down to the bottom of a ship.

4.2 Installation Guide
・ Do not install in the place where the vibration such as deck crane and anchor drive equipment
neighborhood is strong. The allowable vibration level is shown below.
The vibration measurement point is the upper surface of the signal processor unit.

Figure Allowable Vibration Level

・ Execute the earth construction by using the copper plate provided by not the earth lead but the attachment.
In addition, earth it to the stud bolt etc. welded directly to the hull after peeling off painting enough.
・ The unit install in the distance that the transducer cable reaches.
Because the IP grade is IPX5, this unit is usually installed in boatswain’s store.
・ As the transducer cable may receive or generate noise, install the unit in a place that is free of
interference. Usually, it covers the cable with the piping of the exclusive use from the transducer to the
signal processor.
・ Install it vertically on the wall so that the cable inlet becomes it below.
