Step 1: Mounting the straps.
A. Disassemble the enclosure. Remove the Covers. Remove the Keepers. Remove the
Clamping Bracket. Loosen the transducer clamping screw. Retain all hardware for
future use. See Fig 1-2A
B. Determine the correct spacing required as outlined in the FDC Menu and Field
Manual. Lay out the parts on a bench or table and install the spacer bar using the
FDC Calculated spacing index. See Fig 1-2B.
C. Place the assembly on the pipe and mark the pipe at each strap location using chalk
or a grease pencil. See Fig 1-3.
D. Prepare straps for mounting. Cut strap to length. Strap length should be twice the pipe
circumference plus 6 inches. Orient all hardware to the outside of the radius. Remove
setscrew from Screw-Lock Buckle. Retain for later use. See Fig 1-4
{Note: For Reflect
mode, install one keeper for each path (i.e. Dual Beam Reflect will have two keepers
at each strap location). For Direct-X mode install two keepers at each strap location.}
E.
Mount the straps at the previously marked locations. Loop once around the pipe and
feed the open end of the strap through the Screw-Lock Buckle and the Keeper/s as
shown in Fig 1-5. Pull the loose end to remove most of the slack. Continue with another
loop around the pipe and through the Screw-Lock Buckle a second time. Pull tight to
remove slack.
Continue to Step 1-R for mounting in Reflect Mode.
Continue to Step 1-D for mounting in Direct-X Mode.
