6.4 Protection Against Mechanical Risks
The door of the ABS / polycarbonate 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.

part of the hinges located on the door.
After installation, simply locate the lid hinges over the installed base hinges and pull toward you.

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 photo reference on preceding pages.
Be aware that the hinged door 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.
6.5 Mounting the Transmitter
The LPT should be mounted on a fl at vertical surface using the four 4.4 mm (0.175”) diameter
mounting holes provided to maintain water tight status. Care should be taken to ensure that the
face of the LPT is not obstructed in order to maximize the sensor’s exposure to the environment
being monitored.
Two 12.7 mm (½ in) conduit entry points are provided in the enclosure. Both are located in the
