Fitting Instructions

To ensure that the accelerometer gives optimum performance it is important that care is taken when mounting the stud and accelerometer by following the instructions below:-

• Select a mounting position, in any plane, as close as possible to the vibration source
• Prepare a flat, smooth, unpainted surface larger than the base of the accelerometer
• Thoroughly clean the surface and the base of the glue stud with solvent
• Dispense required amount of Loctite Metal Adhesive Set onto a suitable tray.  Mix thoroughly to an even colour.  This should take no more than 1 – 2 minutes.  Apply adhesive to the base of the stud and fit to the prepared surface. The adhesive will begin to set after a few minutes, but allow 1 hour for a full strength bond
• Before fitting the accelerometer to the stud, smear grease onto the mating surfaces to ensure good coupling to the accelerometer
• Fit the accelerometer to the stud and lightly tighten
• Loop the cable and cleat to the accelerometer body, then cleat the cable to a surface to minimise movement
