Maintaining
the transducer
Do not expose the transducer’s face or plastic housing to gasoline or
strong solvents, such as acetone. These solvents can penetrate and
degrade many plastics and reduce their strength.
Using anti-fouling
paint
The transducer should be coated with water-based anti-fouling paint to
prevent aquatic growth.
