1.4.1 Mounting

Ensure that the Phalcon 2000 is mounted with its base horizontal.

Phalcon 2000

The Phalcon 2000 is provided with three M12 tapped holes.  These holes are equispaced on a 200
mm diameter circle, on the underside of the Phalcon 2000.

Ensure that any mounting plate / fixture and screws used for mounting the Phalcon 2000 are of a
material and finish compatible with the stainless steel screw inserts in the moulding – stainless
steel screws are preferred.

Use plain and spring washers beneath each screw and apply a light application of grease to assist
later removal.

Tighten the screws to between 37 – 44 lbf (50 – 60 Nm).

1.4.2 Grounding for Lightning Protection

The internal electron housing is electrically connected to the metal baseplate mounted in the
bottom of the racon housing.  One or more of the external mounting bolts should be connected to
an appropriate earth grounding structure.  If buoy mounted, an insulated copper braid should be
connected from the racon base and immersed at least two feet in the water with the insulating
removed from the immersed section of the braid.

1.4.3 Power Requirements

A DC power source of 9 V to 36 V can be used for the Phalcon 2000.  In most installations, power
will be supplied from a 12 V battery recharged by solar panels.

The power supply connector is on the side of the base moulding, as shown in Figure 4. Note that
pin 6 (the green wire in the supplied cable assembly) is a reference common for the Suppress
Input and Alarm lines and must NOT be connected to the battery lines.
