5.2 Mounting of Cup Star
Tools
•
Screw wrench SW 8
Mounting
1. Remove cup star from the
packing.
2. Screw-off cap nut (SW 8) and
remove disc..
The gasket remains in the
protective cap.
1. Mounting of cup star acc. to
figure.
The dowel at the cup star cross
must catch the notch of the
protective cap. The cap nut is to
be screwed tightly.
5.3 Mounting of Wind Transmitter
The transmitter can be mounted onto a tube of R 1
1/2"
(
¬
48,3 mm), 50 mm long. The internal
diameter of the mounting tube must be at least 40 mm since the transmitter will be plugged into an
electrical system from below. Solder a cable (for ex. LiYCY) with the required number of leads of
each 0,5 mm
2
onto the enclosed plug. After electrical connection, set the wind transmitter onto the
tube. North marking and bow shall indicate to the North.
North Alignment
Rotate the case markings (north marking) on the shaft and on the protective cap until they are
aligned. Then select an obvious point in a northerly direction in the surroundings (a tree, a building
etc.) with the aid of a compass. Take a bearing on this point over the wind vane and the counter
weight of the wind direction transmitter, and when these coincide screw the wind transmitter into
place. (the north marking must indicate to the
geographic north
).
The instrument is fixed on the shaft by means of the two hexagon head screws.
Alignment of the comb. Wind Transmitter on a Ship
•
The reference point for the wind transmitter is the roll-axis of the ship, whereat “0°” is related
to the
ship bow
.
Rotate the case markings (north marking) on the shaft and on the protective cap until they are
aligned. Take a bearing on ship bow over the wind vane and the counter weight of the wind
direction transmitter, and when these coincide screw the wind transmitter into place. (the north
marking must indicate to the geographic north).
•
When aligning the comb. wind transmitter on other mobile objects (for ex. vehicles, wind
power plants etc.) this procedure can be adopted
