RAISED PANEL FLOOR FLANGE
INSTALLATION
The ground ring assembly includes a floor flange which interfaces
with the brush ring located on the perimeter of the turntable. The
floor flange provides constant electrical contact with the ground
plane and is usually installed with the turntable.
Mounting methods vary according to user specifications. Clearance
holes are provided, at evenly spaced intervals, along the outside
perimeter of the ground ring as a means of attaching the ring to a
customer supplied ground plane. These instructions cover
installation for a paneled floor, please see the section on “Rolled
Steel Flange Mounting in Concrete Pit” for further instructions if
that is where your flange will be mounted.
For this step you will need a pipe clamp and three 3/8” allen
wrenches or some other piece of material that is 3/8” diameter.
You will also need a hand drill, 5/32” drill bit, #3 phillips drive bit,
a small square, marker, and ¼”x 1-3/4” phillips flat head,
TAPCON screws, and a hacksaw.
The turntables described in this manual each have two floor flange
pieces. All of the flanges are cut oversize for bending purposes and
the only one that will need to be cut is the last flange installed.
Using a pipe clamp and 3/8” allen wrenches or 3/8” pin, place a
spacer between the turntable and flange starting in three places in
the center or on the flange. Once there is tension on all three
wrenches, drill a 5/32” hole through the counter-sunk holes in the
floor flange. Drill completely through the panel and place screws
into the holes. Continue working around the flange doing 2 or 3
holes at a time.
NOTE: It is very important that this 3/8” gap between turntable
and floor flange be held as close as possible so that the grounding
brushes seat properly. Also make sure that the flange ends are
flush with each other.
