Outdoor Pendant Model
The Outdoor Pendant model mounts on a Vicon mount (refer to the table in the Introduction section) or a 1.5-
inch vertical pipe with appropriate coupling in the same manner as the indoor version. The outdoor version
includes a sunshield, heater and weather protection.
Outdoor Pendant Overview
The mount is installed with all the cables run through it or the 1.5-inch NPT pipe is prepared with lubricant for
the housing and the SurveyorVFT installation. The cables are routed through the housing and the housing is
screwed tightly to the pipe. Then the customer interface board is wired. The SurveyorVFT is hung from the
housing safety cord. The SurveyorVFT drive is then carefully snapped into the housing. The entire
SurveyorVFT is supported by the mount. The outdoor lower dome is then snapped on and screwed tight to
the SurveyorVFT. See Figure 15. Detailed installation instructions will follow.
The accessory kit contains the removable terminal blocks to be used for connections in this installation. The
mount must provide a support of suitable strength for the outdoor pendant SurveyorVFT weight of 7.7 lb
(3.5 kg).
1. Install the mount in accordance with the
installation manual included with the mount
or prepare the vertical 1.5-inch NPT pipe.
2. Feed all necessary cables through the
back of the mount or out the end of the 1.5-
inch NPT pipe.
3. Unlatch and rotate the customer interface
board 90º downward to provide access to
the terminal blocks. (The board can be
completely removed if necessary by
snapping it out of the hinge after rotated to
the 90º downward position.)
4. Apply the provided anti-seize lubricant to
the first 2-3 unpainted threads of the
housing.
5. Lift the sunshield/housing up to the mount
and feed the cables through its top
opening.
6. Place the housing onto the 1.5-inch pipe
and screw clockwise, looking up at the
housing. When it becomes snug, turn it an
additional quarter-turn.
7. If using an alternate mounting configuration
that uses an external 1-1/2-in. pipe thread,
a coupling adapter is required. Repeat steps 4, 5 and 6. Apply a watertight silicone (or equivalent) sealant
after installation to avoid leakage. Refer to Alternate Mounting Configuration figure.

8. Remove terminal blocks from the accessory kit. The 2-pin is for power, the two (2) 8-pin are for alarms
and control/relay; the 3-pin is for UTP option. Terminate all the cables as follows:
a) Strip approximately 1 inch (25 mm) of the cable outer jacket to be terminated in terminal blocks TB1
and TB3. Then strip approximately 0.25 inches (6 mm) of insulation off of each individual wire.
