Installation of the antenna requires that a 0.75” round hole be punched through the mounting surface to allow the 
antenna cable to enter.  The antenna must be mounted on the outside of the rectifier cabinet.  An integral sealing gasket 
is present to prevent water entry into the rectifier cabinet.  The top face must be oriented skyward. 

 

Figure 15 SPI1 Stationary Interrupter GPS Antenna 

Figure 16 shows the 3 meter long cable (Mobiltex

®

 P/N W16400CPI03) used to connect the SPI1 Portable 

Interrupter to the MSR2 relay or directly to a rectifier with a Mobiltex

®

 interruption port already hardwired in.  The 

cable is symmetric, so either end can be plugged into the SPI1 or the MSR2.  The connectors on the cable and 
SPI1/MSR2 form a waterproof connection when mated.
