| | == Bilge Pumps == | | == Bilge Pumps == |
| | | | |
| − | There are two electric bilge pumps and two manual bilge pumps. An electric submersible pump is in the central portion of the bilge well. A diaphragm electric pump is in the cabinet beneath the nav station. Float switches for the two electric pumps are located in the bilge well. The diaphragm pump's float switch is in the deepest part of the bilge; it should energize first and keep the bilge dry. The submersible pump's float switch is forward and higher; it should energize if there is an inch or more water in the bilge.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The two electric bilge pumps are connected to the House batteries via the always-on "Bilge Pumps" breaker on [[X-Dimension_systems#Circuit_Breaker_Panel_1|breaker panel #1]]. Individual auto-manual-off controls for the electric pumps are located port of the nav station. Note that the "Bilge Pumps" breaker bypasses the House Battery Switch and the pumps will still operate if the House Battery Switch is off. (See [http://sailing.mit.edu/wikiupload/3/3c/X-dimension_bilge_circuits.pdf X Dimension Bilge Pump Wiring])
| |
| | | | |
| − | The cockpit manual pump is located on the port bulkhead of the cockpit just forward of the helm. The high-volume manual pump is located under the floorboards of the hanging locker behind the nav station, and can be operated without removing the floorboards. The handles for the two manual pumps are stored in the hanging locker behind the nav station. The smaller handle fits the pump in the cockpit, and the longer handle the pump behind the nav station.

| |
| − | '''Note:''' the high volume manual pump is operated with the long handle from inside the locker behind the nav station. The pump itself is underneath the floorboards in that locker; the handle is inserted into the pump through a cut-out in the floorboards on the starboard side of the locker (to your left when looking into the locker). The cutout may be covered by stored items, such as PFDs, which must be removed to access the pump.

| | | | |
| − | The head is a hand-operated marine toilet unit connected to a 25 gallon expanding holding tank. The output from the toilet goes into the holding tank. From the holding tank there are two hoses, one to a pump-out fitting on the deck, the other to a thru-hull under the forward cabin sink.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The forward facing panel beneath the sink in the forward cabin can be removed for access to the thru-hull valve.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The seawater in thru-hull is located port of center under the main cabin floorboards, just aft of the mast. A small mesh strainer is located inline soon after the thru-hull valve.

| | === Batteries === | | === Batteries === |
| | | | |
| − | There are two independent sets of batteries on the boat. The "Engine" battery (or "Starter Battery") is used for starting the engine. The "House" batteries supply power to most of the rest of the electrical equipment onboard.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The House batteries are charged by the alternator. The Engine battery is charged via the Balmar Duo Charge, mounted on the bulkhead above and just forward of the House batteries. A solar panel was installed in 2015 to trickle-charge the house batteries.
| |
| | | | |
| | ==== Engine Battery ==== | | ==== Engine Battery ==== |
| | | | |
| − | The Engine Battery is a marine dual-purpose AGM battery. The battery is located in the port lazarette, next to the water heater, and under the propane tank.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Engine battery is isolated by the Engine Battery Switch, located alongside the circuit breakers above the galley sink. The Engine Battery Switch is an on/off switch, located by the circuit breaker panels above the galley sink.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When the Engine Battery Switch is on, power is connected to the starter motor and to the "Ignition Switch" on the binnacle in the cockpit through the always-on 50 amp "Engine" breaker above the galley sink. The Ignition Switch on the binnacle powers the following circuits:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Starter button on binnacle (connected to starter solenoid)
| |
| − | * Balmar charging regulator
| |
| − | * Engine instruments in cockpit instrument panel
| |
| − | * Engine temperature sensors, oil pressure sensor and alarm buzzer
| |
| − | * Electric inline Fuel Pump located under port settee, just aft of the fuel tank
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The Engine Battery Switch should be switched to OFF when leaving the boat.
| |
| | | | |
| | ==== House Batteries ==== | | ==== House Batteries ==== |
| | | | |
| − | The House battery bank consists of two Lifeline GPL-31T deep-cycle marine AGM batteries, tied together in parallel. This battery bank is located in the starboard lazarette, just aft of a bulkhead that separates the lazarette from the main cabin. The House battery compartment is usually covered by a white wooden tray that contains winch handles.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The House battery bank is isolated by the House Battery Switch, located alongside the circuit breakers above the galley sink.
| |
| − | The House Battery Switch is a four-way switch located by the circuit breaker panels above the galley sink. During normal operation of the boat, the House Battery Switch should be switched to the "House" position. This allows the house battery bank to be charged by the engine, and to power the various 12-volt devices through the breakers above the galley sink.
| |
| | | | |
| − | The House Battery Switch should be switched to "OFF" when leaving the boat.
| + | === Solar Charging === |
| | | | |
| − | The two additional positions on the House Battery Switch will enable parallel use of the House battery bank and the Engine battery, and should only be used in case of emergency. (See [http://sailing.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Standard_operational_procedures#Emergency_Battery_Operations Emergency Battery Operations]) Note that the Engine Battery Switch must be ON in order to use the House Battery Switch as an emergency parallel switch.
| |
| | | | |
| − | === Solar Charging ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A 55-watt '''Ganz GSP-55 solar panel''' is installed on the v-berth hatch. The cable snakes through the dorade box into the head, then along the port wiring conduit. It connects to a '''Morningstar SunSaver MPPT solar controller''' which charges the House battery bank directly (not through the House Battery Switch).
| |
| | | | |
| | === Circuit Breaker Panels === | | === Circuit Breaker Panels === |
| | | | |
| − | As of September 2016, there are four circuit breaker panels above the galley sink, and one panel in the cockpit.
| |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Note''': Any circuits that are not currently connected will be labeled "N/C" with blue tape at the circuit breaker.

| |
| − | Power to this panel is supplied by the "Navigation Lights Master" circuit breaker on the control panels above the galley sink. Each of the six circuits is protected by an internal blade-type fuse. When power is supplied to the panel, and the corresponding fuses are not blown, then the circuit indicator labels will glow red. When each circuit is switched on, then the label will glow green. If the label does not glow, then the fuse is probably blown. Please see the instruction manual for fuse replacement.
