MOUNTING DETAIL
TST mounts directly to bottom of joist using Hanger Bolt
The AW339-All Weather Transducers are recommended for use
on outdoor installations, including decks, boat docks, etc.
Note: If for some reason it is not possible to mount to the joists,
use a bridge between joists as you would in a floor installation
(see Page 8 for instructions and images for building a bridge).
Tip: Tighten two
Jam Nuts against
each other to
screw in Hanger
Bolt using wrench.
Installation Type: Hanger Bolt
For decks, we recommend using one (1) All Weather Transducer
for every 10 ft. by 10 ft. section of deck. For example, if you have
a deck that measres 10 ft. by 30 ft., we would suggest you install
three (3) Transducers.
For all installations, regardless of the number of Transducers, we
recommend locating the Transducers equidistant from the edges
of the deck and/or from each other. This helps create a more
uniform distribution of the tactile effect.
The easiest installation method is to use the Hanger Bolt to mount
the Transducer(s) to the bottom of the joist(s). Steps for this
installation method can be found on Page 8.
It is important to make Transducer wire connections as watertight
as possible by using electrical tape and molded plastic connectors.
