  • Ground Mounting Set (Vaisala item OPTMSET2)

    • Mounting stand (delivered in three parts)
    • Wedge anchors (6 pcs) for securing the mounting stand to ground
    • Screws, washers, and nuts
  • 6-mm Allen key
  • 13-mm wrench
  • Impact drill and bits
Use the Ground Mounting Set when a free standing installation of the DGA monitor is needed. The mounting surface must allow the use of wedge anchors to secure the mounting stand. A concrete surface that is at least 100 mm thick is recommended.

  1. Assemble the mounting stand. Tighten the screws to finger tightness at this point, not all the way.
  2. Using the assembled mounting stand as the template, mark the locations of the six anchors on the mounting surface. If the mounting location is at the edge of a concrete slab, leave at least 10 cm (4 in) clearance to the edge.
