Mount Devices
Tools Required
To mount VP Series 2000 devices, you need a VP Series 2000 C-spanner and flat wrench available as part
of the installation kit available from Divigraph.
You also need:
• Spot facing tool 40 mm (1 ½ inches) diameter.
• Steel wire brush.
• Drills and thread-taps.
• Marker pen.
• Thread locking compound, for example, Loctite Blue 242.
• Non-curing silicone grease, for example, Dow Corning 4 Electrical Insulating Compound.

! WARNING
HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENT
Before mounting Ranger Pro devices in a potentially hazardous environment, verify that hazardous
materials, atmospheres, and conditions have been removed or that relevant risk mitigation measures
have been implemented.
To select a machine mounting position and hardware:
1. Choose a mounting position on the machine housing.
a. Verify there is enough clearance to mechanically install the sensor using the wrench provided in
the installation kit.
b. Locate the device to obtain optimal vibration measurements.
c. Verify radio connectivity. To improve connectivity, we recommend at least 100mm (4 inches)
clearance around the e-module on the top of the device. For more information, see the
"Consider Sensor Range" section.
! Note
If you are mounting a tri-axial VP Series 2000 device, it can be difficult to align the device to the axis of
the machine being monitored. We recommend you use the tri-axial alignment studs available as spare
mounting adapters. Also see "About Using Adhesives".
