Refer to the following instructions for mounting the flow computer
enclosure onto a 2-inch pole.
Warning
Ensure that power is off and the area is non-hazardous before
performing this procedure.
Warning
Installation must be carried out in accordance with local site
requirements and regulations.
Tip
Pole mounting instructions for metal and fiberglass enclosures are the
same.
1. With the enclosure upright, align the holes of one mounting channel
with the top set of mounting tabs on the enclosure.
2. Facing the front of the enclosure, align one flat washer with one
mounting tab, and insert a cap screw through the mounting tab and
the mounting channel.
3. Facing the rear of the enclosure, place a flat washer and lock washer
over the cap screw, and fasten with a nut.
4. Repeat steps 2–3 for the other side of the mounting channel.
5. Align the holes of the second mounting channel with the bottom set of
mounting tabs, and repeat steps 2–3 to secure it to the enclosure.
Tip
If the enclosure is mounted onto a transducer, you will need to remove
the washers, split lock washers, and nuts securing the direct mounting
bracket to the enclosure. Install the mounting channel onto the direct
mounting bracket. Secure everything with the hardware you removed.
There will be two extra flat washers, lock washers, and cap
screws.
6. On the pole, install the two pipe clamps using the hardware provided.
7. Align the mounting channels on the enclosure with the grooves on the
pipe clamps, and slide the enclosure onto the clamps.
