5.3 Protection Against Mechanical Risks
The door of the enclosure can be removed if absolutely necessary to facilitate installation of the
base but it is not recommended on this version. Extreme care and caution must be exercised
when removing the door to avoid damaging the hinges. The door should only be removed when
absolutely required. Any damage occurring from door removal procedure will not be covered under
warranty.
Simply grasp the door with one hand, being careful not to make contact with any of the internal
components (circuit board), grasp the base with your other hand. Tug on the base and pull straight
apart.
DO NOT TWIST
. The section of the hinges located on the base should “snap” apart from the
part of the hinges located on the door.
After installation, simply locate the lid hinges over the installed base hinges and pull toward you.
The hinges should easily “snap” back into place.
The enclosure has one screw securing the door to the base for electrical safety and provides an
opening to allow the user to apply a padlock or tie wrap if they desire the transmitter to be locked.
See Section
4.1 Exterior Enclosure
.
Be aware that the hinged door that could potentially pinch fi ngers and the sharp edges and/or
jumper pins on the board could potentially prick or cut fi ngers if not handled carefully.
5.4 Mounting the Transmitter
The LPT-P should be mounted on a fl at vertical surface using the four 4.4 mm / 0.175 in diameter
mounting holes provided to maintain water tight status. Care should be taken to ensure that the
face of the LPT-P is not obstructed in order to maximize the sensor’s exposure to the environment
being monitored.
