Mounting Soliwave FDR56/FQR56 Screw in connection thread. For G 1½ thread: Tighten counternut. Align the electronics housing (cable gland or plug connector of both devices must point in the same direction). Fix the housing in place. • When using the G 1½ process connection (standard thread according to ISO 228-1, hexagon SW55) with counternut, the device can be mounted flush particularly easi- ly, as it is a cylindrical thread.
