NSTALLING THE
A
NEMOMETER
NOTE: Whenever drilling and mounting on the outside wall or roof, be aware of internal cabinet
framing or other structure that may be behind the outer surface. Adjust drill locations as
necessary to prevent unnecessary damage. Interior structure and components could also
interfere with drilling and cable routing.
1.
Position the anemometer in location and mount using two (2) #10 x 3/4 screws.
•
Align the screw holes with a roof support;
•
For rubber roofs, do not drill pilot holes for the mounting screws;
•
For fiberglass roofs, drill two pilot holes using the anemometer as a template.
•
Coat the bottom of the anemometer with silicone sealant. With particular attention around the
mounting holes.
2.
Drill a 7/16” hole in the sidewall or roof, close to the anemometer.
3.
Slide the cable through the grommet and into the hole drilled in step 2.
4.
Coat the underside of the grommet flange with a silicone sealant; then seat the grommet in the hole.
5.
Push the wire through the grommet for best fit then seal the wire in the grommet with silicone sealant.
