6 Constant Running Hydraulic Pump - Installation Guide
1. EMC installation guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories aredesigned tothe best
industrystandards for use in the recreational marine environment.
Theirdesign andmanufactureconformstotheappropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC) standards,but correct
installation is required to ensure that performance is not
compromised.Althoughevery effort has been taken to ensure that
they willperform under all conditions, it isimportant to understand

performance, butit is recognized that it may notbe possible to meet
all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible
conditionsforEMC performancewithin theconstraintsimposedby
any location, always ensure the maximumseparation possible
between different items of electrical equipment.
For optimumEMC performance, itisrecommended that wherever
possible:
•Raymarine equipment and cables connected toit are:
•At least3 ft (1m) fromany equipmenttransmittingor cables
carryingradio signalse.g.VHFradios, cablesand antennas.
In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to
7ft(2m).
•More than7 ft(2 m) from the path ofa radar beam. Aradar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20degrees above
andbelow the radiating element.
•The equipment is supplied from a separate battery fromthat used
for engine start. Voltage dropsbelow 10 V, and starter motor
transients,cancausetheequipmenttoreset.Thiswillnotdamage
theequipment,but maycause the lossofsome informationand
maychange the operatingmode.
•Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these
cables can compromise EMC performance andmust be avoided
unless doing sois detailed in the installation manual.
