Optional clamp-on mounting straps
Note
IMPORTANT
If magnetic mounting frames are to be used in temperatures above 100°C (212°F) clamp-on
mounting straps are recommended.
The use of clamp-on mounting straps to mount the frames to the pipe is optional. Their use
is dependent upon the environment and location of the pipe.
Note
Only use worm-gear style mounting straps.
1. Once the mounting frames are at the final mounting location, slide the mounting straps
through the strap slots on the frame and then around the pipe.
Figure B-20
2. Tighten the mounting straps to seat the mounting assembly firmly on the pipe. Do not
over tighten.
Mounting with spacer bar
Magnetic frames can be installed with a spacer bar, if available. Refer to Reflect mount
(Page 30) for installation instructions.
