4. Mount the NORAC UC4+ ultrasonic
sensor (E02) into the sensor brackets.
The sensors should be oriented forward
(ahead) of the boom (see Figure 6 and
Figure 8).
When installing the UC4+
sensors (E02), start with the
smallest serial number on the left
hand side proceeding to the
largest serial number on the right
hand side (Figure 9).
5. Sensor cables should run through the
mounting bracket tube and then behind
the member the bracket is mounted
onto. Cable-tie the connector in place.
The cable must not be allowed to hang
below the boom (Figure 6).
Figure 6: Another Acceptable
Mounting
Avoid mounting sensors in
locations where they may read
from parts of the boom.
Figure 7: Poor Mounting
(Sensor Reading off Boom)
General mounting rules for UC4+
ultrasonic wing sensors:
a)
In its lowest position, the sensor mouth
must be 9 inches or more from the
ground.
b)
The bottom of the sensor must be at
least 9 inches in front of the spray
nozzles.
c)
The bottom of the sensor must be at
least 9 inches above the spray nozzles.
d)
Ensure that there are no obstructions
within a 12-inch diameter circle
projected directly below the center of
the sensor.
e)
The sensor should be approximately
vertical at normal operating heights.
