11 Hardware Installation
Select an appropriate mounting position for the VP Series 2000 device leaving enough clearance for
both mechanical installation and optimal RF performance. Devices can be mounted by means of a
mounting adaptor directly onto a machine or by using a cemented mounting pad.
A clearance of 100mm or more is recommended for optimal RF performance, but is not mandatory.

A 1.25mm diameter fall protection hole in the base provides the ability to secure the device using a
stainless steel lanyard to prevent it from falling should the mounting fail.

OR
Cement the mounting pad onto the prepared surface with a suitable bonding agent.
• Hand-tighten the device or use a torque wrench to tighten to 2-3 Nm.
