You can use any one of three Raymarine wind transducer types in conjunction with the ST60+ Wind instruments: · Cruiser wind vane (short arm). The transducer is connected to the rear of the instrument. Note: The ST60+ Close Hauled Wind instrument does not connect directly to a wind trans- ducer. For advice, or further information regarding the installation of this equipment, please contact the Raymarine Product Support Department or your own National Distributor. 3. 1 Planning your installation Before starting the installation, spend some time considering the best positions for both transducer and instrument, such that the Site requirements and the EMC installation guidelines are satisfied. Site requirements Transducers Each transducer type has a cable connected, and is supplied with a junction box and a set of spade terminals. The transducer location must: · Allow reasonable access for installation and servicing. · Be as high as possible and away from any equipment which may shield the transducer or otherwise disturb the air flow. mast top) is otherwise suitable but not horizontal, make up a suitable wedged packing piece to provide the necessary horizontal surface. There must also be a viable route for the transducer cable to be routed to the instrument. 12 ST60+ Wind & Close Hauled Wind Instrument Owner's Handbook 7. 4 in (187 mm) 10. 7 in (272 mm) Approx 16. 8 in (426 mm)* 2. 7 in (68 mm) 1. 5 in (38 mm) 21. 2 in (538. 5 mm) 9. 76 in (248 mm) Wind Vane Wind transducer dimensions 2. 76 in (70 mm) Rotavecta *Exact Rotavecta height is dependent on mounting method.
