If the difference between the TC and SC is greater than 9.5 inches (241 mm), contact
TapTone engineering for a custom stand tube.
Now calculate the inspection range for your containers as follows:
Max. test height: MXT = CH + TC =
Min. test height: MNT = CH + SC =
Calculate the amount of tube that needs to be cut off the bottom as follows:
CUTOFF = MXS - MXT =
4. Remove the (2) bolts holding the transducer head assembly.
5. Remove the (2) screws holding the junction box clamp for the RTV system.
6. Remove the tripod base by loosening the (4) bolts.
7. Mark and cut the bottom of the stand tube by the length calculated (CUTOFF).
8. Reassemble the tripod base to the stand by tightening the (4) bolts.
9. Reassemble the junction box to the stand with the (2) junction box clamp screws.
10. Reassemble the transducer head to the bracket with the (2) bolts.
11. Place the transducer stand along the conveyor with the transducer head assembly directly
over the container flow at the location selected then mark three holes for drilling.
12.
Drill three 5/8” (15.875mm) holes in the floor to a depth of 2” (50.8mm) then hammer in
the anchor drop-in part number 0219-313 into the holes.
13. Secure the tripod base to the floor using the ½-
13 x 2” bolts, flat and split-lock washers
