Seakeeper<\/span><\/span><\/span> can only assess installation location regarding its impact on Seakeeper<\/span><\/span><\/span> operation and serviceability. Seakeeper<\/span><\/span><\/span> cannot determine how the installation location will affect the vessel static or directional stability other than cyclic roll reduction. The Installer is responsible for considering the Seakeeper<\/span><\/span><\/span> \u2019s effect on the CG location, trim, overall stability, and performance of the vessel.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Selection of mounting location of the Seakeeper<\/span> should consider the following desirable features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Provide adequate clearance for all recommended scheduled maintenance and any repairs that may be necessary, as shown in Figure 4 and installation drawings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The Seakeeper<\/span><\/span> should be installed in a dry space to minimize effects of corrosion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Installed near the vessel\u2019s longitudinal center of gravity (LCG) to minimize effects on trim and performance in various loading conditions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Overhead access or sufficient clearance for removal \/ re-installation of the Seakeeper<\/span><\/span> for overhaul in future years.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Refer to Figure 5 for recommended clearances to transverse or longitudinal beams. Clearances aft of the
    Seakeeper<\/span> are shown to provide access for regular scheduled maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n

    2.2.1 Noise \/ Soundproofing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Seakeeper<\/span> noise has been measured under steady state conditions (no wave load) in Seakeeper<\/span>\u2018s Engineering Lab and in our Factory Demo Boat. The steady state noise is <72dBC at 1 meter. As the frequencies emitting the highest sound pressures are low (like other marine machinery), it is recommended that the Seakeeper<\/span> be installed in an enclosed space such as a leaning post \/ seat, bilge, center console, or machinery space. This space can be treated with soundproofing if desired and does not require ventilation for Seakeeper<\/span> operation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
