Product catalog summary
General Information
The SUPERTYFON AT 150/330 is a high-power whistle designed for vessels up to 200 meters in length, adhering to IMO regulations. It is important to use appropriate frequencies for different vessel sizes, with 130 to 350 Hz being suitable for vessels between 75 to 200 meters.

Positioning Whistles
Proper positioning of the ship's whistles is crucial for effective sound radiation and minimizing noise levels at listening posts. Further installation guidelines can be found in the leaflet "IMO Regulations, KSM 265E."

Valve Unit TV 784
The valve unit features good airflow, thermostatic heating, and exchangeable choke flanges and filters. It includes two coils for normal and emergency operations and a lanyard as standard.

Installation
The SUPERTYFON AT 150/330 should be mounted with four M16 bolts. Ensure the supply pipe is clean before connection. If the pipeline above deck exceeds 100 meters, a primary filter TP 15/2 is recommended to prevent water condensate and rust particles.

Technical Data
Frequency: 330 Hz (340 Hz optional)
Sound Pressure Level: Total 148 dB, 1/3 octave IMO limit 138 dB
Air Consumption: 20–30 I/s
Air Supply Pressure: 0.6—3 MPa (6—30 bar), 40 bar optional
Electric Power: Thermostat heating 24 W, Valve 27 W
Weight: 11.5 kg

Air Pressure Choking
Proper air pressure is essential for optimal performance. The working pressure should be specified when ordering, and the connection pipe should be dimensioned according to recommendations.

Spare Parts and Dimensions
Spare parts for the AT 150/330 and Valve Unit TV 784 are available from Kockum Sonics. When ordering, provide the working pressure, reference number, and part name. Detailed dimensions and materials for spare parts are listed, including horn, screws, diaphragm, choke flange, filter, housing, and packing materials.

Pipe Line Dimensions
Guidelines for pipeline dimensions based on working pressure and length are provided to ensure proper connection to the signal apparatus.

SUPERTYFON® AT 150/330 with Valve Unit TV 784 A high–power whistle according to IMO for vessels up to 200 m in length AT 150/330 Housing Complete Ref. no. 24510052 General Information Before "COLREG 1972" (the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea), a popular practice was to use low–pitched tones even for smaller vessels. In other words, the principle of a low tone for large vessels was not followed with sufficient stringency. SUPERTYFON AT 150/330 is to be fixed with four M16 bolts to an outrigger or similar construction. To avoid functional trouble blow the supply pipe thoroughly clean before connecting to the signalling whistle. If the pipe line above deck is longer than 100m, a primary FILTER TP 15/2 should be installed at the foot of the mast to protect the signalling apparatus from water condensate and rust particles. This filter is recommended to be drained regularly, approximately once a month. According to the IMO regulations, the very low tones are strictly reserved for the largest ships. For middle–sized and smaller vessels, there are rather wide limits as to the choice of frequencies. Preference has been given to signals which, even at some distance, have capability to be heard. For vessels of 75 to 200m, TYFON® and SUPERTYFON with frequencies between 130 and 350 Hz are appropriate. Positioning Whistles For an all–round radiation and a limited noise level from the ship's whistles at the listening posts, the positioning of the ship's whistles is very important. For further information regarding installation regulations and "Combined Systems", see our leaflet "IMO Regulations, KSM 265E". Valve Unit The VALVE UNIT TV 784 has a good air flow section, thermostatic heating, exchangeable choke flanges and filters. The apparatus is fitted with two coils for normal and emergency operation and lanyard as standard (see separate leaflet KSM 264). Technical Data Frequency: 330 Hz (340 Hz*) Sound Pressure Level (1m): Total: 148 dB 1/3 octave IMO limit: 138 dB Air consumption: 20–30 I/s Air supply pressure with choke regulation: 0,6—3 MPa (6—30 bar) (40 bar optional) Electric power: Thermostat heating: 24 W Valve: 27 W Weight: 11,5 kg *Complementary frequency available together with 330 Hz.
