    Installing the weather station There must be at least 60 cm of space below, to the sides and in front of the weather station left from other elements (structures, construction parts, etc.). 60 cm The weather station must be mounted on a perpendicular wall (or a pole).
  • Page 12 The weather station must be mounted in the horizontal transverse direction (horizontally).
  • Page 13: Attaching The Mount

    When wall mounting: flat side on wall, crescent- shaped collar upward. Drill sketch An additional, optional accessory available from Elsner Elektronik is an articulated arm for flexible wall, pole or beam mounting of the weather station. Example of the use of a mounting arm: Due to flexible ball joints, the sensor can be brought into ideal position.
  • Page 14: Preparation Of The Weather Station

    Example for the application of the hinge arm mounting: With the hinge arm mounting, the weather station projects from beneath the roof. Sun, wind and precipitation can be measured unhindered by the sensors. Example for the application of the hinge arm mounting: Pole-mounting with mounting brackets.
  • Page 15: Connection Of Voltage Supply And Drive Mechanism

    In case of the parallel connection of motors, please observe whether a group control relay is specified by the motor manufacturer.
