RAIL MOUNT OPTION
The sonde can be mounted in a number of different configurations, but a rail mount with a
fabricated bracket is recommended. A rail mount kit is also available from YSI, #6511 for 600
series sondes, and 6512 for 6820/6920 sondes. See Appendix D, Accessories for more
information.
Figures 4 and 5 show the two common connection layouts and short and long-range wiring of the
monitor to the sonde.
