bracket that will be rotated to the other side of the pipe. Be sure the mylar is parallel with the face of the

mark the opposite side of the pipe where the mylar is marked from step 7:
9. Sand the pipe at this position if it needs to be prepped because of scale or rust. After prepped, move the
bracket to this 1 cross mark, and tighten it in place. Apply coupling compound to the transducers and
place them in the brackets.
Tips for installing transducers:
a. Be sure the tightening screw on the top of the bracket is loosened completely before attempting
to insert the transducers.
b. Put the transducer into the bracket by ensuring the bottom of the transducer and the couplant
does not touch the pipe as you slide it in. (Hover as you insert it)
c. Tighten the screws on the bracket until tight. The transducer will be level with the surface of the
pipe.
