7.2 Mounting the sensor
A quick release pole mounting kit is supplied with the sensor.
If a power supply enclosure has been supplied with the sensor it can be
mounted on the pole, near its base using the brackets supplied with the
enclosure. Alternatively the power supply can be mounted elsewhere, e.g. on a
wall at some distance from the sensor. The power supply enclosure should be
mounted away from the sensor head to avoid wind flow disturbance or rain
drops bouncing back up into the sensor’s sensing volume.
Take care not to overtighten the nuts on the bolts, as it may
be possible to distort and/or damage the brackets or DSP
plate by doing so, and/or the nuts may seize up. Only tighten
the nuts to a degree necessary to hold the sensor firmly in
place.
Where the sensor is to be mounted onto another type of mast, please refer to
the manual for that mast for mounting details.
Ensure that the sensor is mounted according to Figure
Do not reposition, once fixings are tightened, by forcing the
arms of the unit as this can cause damage.
