6.1.6 Crossarm Attachment
Attach the CM202 (0.6 m, 2 ft), CM204 (1.2 m, 4 ft), or CM206 (1.8 m, 6 ft)
crossarm to the tripod mast as shown in FIGURE 6-10. For wind sensors, the
crossarm should be approximately 103 in. above the ground for a 3 m
mounting height, or 64 in. for a 2 m mounting height. Typically the crossarm
is oriented East/West for wind sensors, North/South for pyranometers.

6.1.7 Enclosure Attachment
The ENC10/12, ENC12/14, ENC14/16, and ENC16/18 enclosures can be
ordered with mounting brackets for the CM106B tripod. All enclosure models
can be mounted to the tripod mast (above the legs) with the –MM Mast Mount
bracket option. All enclosure models except the ENC16/18 can be mounted to
the tripod base and leg with the –LM Leg Mount bracket option. Two
enclosures with the –LM brackets can be mounted in a “back to back”
configuration.
6.1.7.1 Enclosure Mounting to Tripod Mast
An enclosure ordered with the –MM bracket has a three-piece top and bottom
brackets with a U-bolt for each bracket.
Attach an enclosure with the –MM mounting bracket to the tripod mast as
follows:
Remove the U-bolts, washers, and nuts from the brackets.
Position the enclosure against the tripod’s mast (North side recommended).
Install the U-bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and nuts (FIGURE 6-11).
Tighten the nuts until the lock washers are compressed.
