4.3 Mounting the MIC 500 Series Camera
To mount the MIC 500 Series Camera, follow these steps:
1. Identify a secure location for the mount (supplied separately).
2. Ensure that the mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight of the
camera and mounting hardware under all expected conditions of load, vibration, and
temperature.
3. Carefully lift the camera to the mounting point and connect the female cable 12 pin
connector to the male plug in the base of the camera. Screw the cable connector sleeve
onto the plug until it is firmly secured (approximately four (4) turns from the start of
thread engagement).
4. Earth the camera using one of the securing supplied bolts. Only earth the camera at a
single point to prevent earth loops and hum bars.
5. User M8 x20 mm Stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers to secure the cameras 4 in. PCD
base to the mounting bracket. An additional Nebar gasket or suitable silicone sealant can
be used to ensure a water tight seal between the 4 in. PCD base and mounting surface.
Tighten all bolts securely. Secure all cabling and conduit.
WARNING!
If the camera is mounted ball down, it is essential that the connector and base area of the
camera are completely sealed from water ingress. Any water getting into the connector is
liable to cause corrosion to the connector pins, leading to unreliable operation of the camera
unit.
WARNING!
To prevent water from penetrating the composite cable connector threads, the 25 mm thread
should be sealed at final installation using PTFE tape (not supplied). Alternatively, a suitable
sealant may be liberally applied to the thread prior to final tightening.
