FIGURE 5-13. 034B mounting to pipe
The wind vane can be easily damaged if dropped or
bent. Leave the wind vane in the protective cardboard
sleeve until it’s ready to be installed.
1.
Remove the alignment screw at the base of the 034B-ET (FIGURE
).
2.
Insert the 034B into the 034B Mounting Shaft.
3.
Align the hole in the shaft with that in the 034B base and replace the
screw. Do not overtighten the alignment screw. Do not remove the
shoulder screw at this time.
4.
Insert the mounting shaft through the U-bolt on the crossarm.
5.
Adjust the mounting shaft so that the cable and connector coming out the
end of the crossarm can plug easily into the mating connector on the 034B.
6.
Lightly tighten up the U-bolt clamp nuts ( FIGURE
).
7.
Align the arrow on the alignment sticker with True South (Appendix
Determining True North and Wind Sensor Orientation
(p. A-1)
). The
counterweight should also point due south.
8.
Make sure the sensor cable is not being pinched by the U-bolt and tighten
the U-bolt to hold the sensor firmly.
