FIGURE 3-1. CM3 and CM3MT
Install the CM3MT Mount on either the 025 Pyranometer Cross Arm Stand, the
015 Pyranometer Mounting Arm, or the UTKZ (not yet available, please call)
before mounting them to the tower or tripod. This is done by first threading the
screws through the springs and just barely through the mounting plate. This
helps remove any paint that might have gotten into the threaded holes. Second,
remove two of the screws/springs, slide the CM3MT Mount onto the remaining
screw by slightly compressing the spring. Slide the remaining two springs
between the CM3MT and the 015 or 025 mount and install the remaining two
screws. Tighten the screws until all three springs have been compressed about
1/8 inch.
Once the pyranometer mount has been installed on the tripod or tower, tighten
the appropriate screws until the bubble indicates the sensor is level.
