FUSION TRUE‑MARINE DESIGN & ENGINEERING

FUSION’s True‑Marine design philosophy stems from our experience confronting the harsh marine
environment. By designing and engineering from the ground up specifically for real world boating
applications, our customers are assured that the equipment they fit into their vessel was intended to
be there by those who understand the very real risk of exposing electronics to the marine environment.
The True‑Marine accreditation is not only the measure of FUSION’s quality, but a measure for others in
our industry to aspire to.

HUMIDITY & SALT SPRAY TESTING VIBRATION & SHOCK TESTING

In high humidity areas marine electronics face the real risk of corrosion and To ensure a product is fit for its life on the water, the ability to operate in irregular or
mechanical failure. Likewise, exposure to salt mist or moisture, even for a small stormy seas without physical damage or degradation is crucial. FUSION test vibration

performance in salty environments, FUSION subjects products up to 500 hours in a
testing environment, taking all True‑Marine products to the extreme.
