6 Installation Instructions
6.1 Install the Enclosure's Mounting Plate
The DEK100 kit includes a custom mounting plate designed to be fastened to a pole with the included clamps or bolted to a
wall or flat surface.
1. Close the enclosure's lid and fasten the latches.
2. Turn the enclosure over and place on a flat surface with the lid facing down.
3. Remove the mounting plate from the packaging along with the self-tapping screws and pole clamps.
4. Align the four holes of the mounting plate with the embossed holes of the enclosure.
5. Verify the plate is oriented such that the countersunk hole faces outward from the enclosure.
6. Use the included screws to fasten the plate to the enclosure. Do not over-torque.
7. Use the 2 13/16" to 3 3/4" pole clamps and the geometry of the plate tabs to fasten the enclosure to an appropriately
sized pole.

6.2 Mount the Solar Panel
Mount the solar panel at an angle appropriate with your geographic region and avoid any light obstructions to the panel for
best performance.
Note:
A three-inch u-bolt is required when mounting to a pole (not included).
The typical angle for solar panel orientation is no less than 20 degrees from parallel to avoid rain accumulation on the
surface. There are many
to determine the best angle for each geographical region.
