6. Skip to step 10 on the next page.
7. Insert the transducers into the mounting blocks, making sure the BNC connectors (or junction boxes) point away
from the center of the fixture (see the figure above). Slightly tighten the pressure bolts to hold the transducers in
place while the couplant begins to spread. Wait one minute.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a wrench or pliers on the pressure bolts.
8. Turn the pressure bolts 1/4 turn and wait one minute again. Do not overtighten the pressure bolts or the mounting
fixture will be forced away from the pipe surface.
9. Repeat step 8 a second time, and then proceed to step 10 on the next page.
10. For permanent applications, tighten the locking nuts with a wrench to maintain constant pressure and to prevent
loosening of the transducers due to vibration and thermal expansions.
The next series of steps depends on what type of dampening material you are using. If you are using:
• DMP-1 , proceed to “Installing DMP-1 Dampening Material” on page 37
