Frequently Asked Questions - Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor SIMRAD

How do I install the Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor?
Apply a 3 mm (1/8") bead of marine-grade sealant around the lip of the housing. Pass the cable through the hole from outside, push the housing in with a twisting motion, and tighten the nut by hand. Do not use a wrench.
What type of sealant should I use?
Use a high-quality marine-grade above- or below-waterline sealant/adhesive compound, such as 3M 5200 or equivalent.
How do I check for leaks?
Immediately after installation, check for leaks. Repeat several times during the next 24 hours. If leakage is observed, re-install with a new coat of adhesive.
Can the sensor be used with any NMEA 2000 network?
Yes, it is compatible with standard NMEA 2000 CAN bus backbones. Connect the drop cable to the backbone and ensure proper 12V power supply via a switch and 5A fuse.
What is the temperature range of the sensor?
The sensor operates between -20°C and +80°C (-4°F to 176°F).
How long is the sensor cable?
The cable is 3 meters (10 feet) long, equipped with a red connector for NMEA 2000.
What PGNs does the sensor transmit?
It transmits PGN 59197 (ISO Acknowledgment), 60978 (ISO Address Claim), 126996 (Product Information), and 65285 (Temperature with distance).
Can I tighten the nut with a wrench?
No, only hand tighten. Using a wrench can damage the sensor or cause leaks.
How do I maintain the sensor?
Rinse with fresh water after each use to remove salt and debris. Inspect the seal and O-ring annually for wear.
Where can I find replacement parts or support?
Contact Simrad customer support or visit their website for spare parts and further assistance.

The Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor converts analog temperature data to NMEA 2000 data format. ▲ You should read all of the installation instructions before proceeding. Decide where to install all components before drilling any holes in your vessel. 3 m (10') A B A NMEA 2000 connector B Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor

Plan the installation Example of location Transom view Suggested location The Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor can be mounted in any location on the hull, the example shown here is for a transom mount. Wherever you install it, make sure the temperature sensor will be in contact with the water at all times and that it does not interfere with the boat's trailer. The maximum hull thickness for the Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor is 31 mm (1-1/4").

Install the Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor Install th After you've determined the location for the Thru-Hull temperature Sensor, drill a 3 mm (1/8") pilot hole from the inside.

Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor The Thru-Hull Temperature Sensor requires a 27 mm (1-1/16") hole. Using a hole saw, drill from the outside to prevent the gel coat from cracking on fiberglass boats. ⚠️ Use eye and face protection when drilling the hole. Afterwards, clean the area around the hole with detergent or alcohol. This will establish a good surface for the adhesive.

Using a high quality, marine-grade above- or below-waterline sealant/adhesive compound, apply a 3 mm (1/8") bead of sealant around the lip of the housing.
Then from the outside, pass the cable through the hole and push the housing with sealant into it. Use a twisting motion to squeeze out excess sealant. Remove excess sealant from the outside of the transom before it dries.
