Mounting the Camera

CAUTION!
Fasteners are not supplied with MIC612 cameras because the type of fastener used depends
on the material to which the fastener is attached. The material must accommodate a minimum
pull-out strength of 275 kg (600 lbs.) Fasteners can include wedge anchors, sleeve anchors,
single expansion anchors, double expansion anchors, machine screw anchors, or "Thru-
Bolting" with a nut. All fasteners must be made of 303(A2) stainless steel, at a minimum, with
a diameter of 8 mm (5/16-in).All bolts must fully extend through the mounting surface and be
secured with a flat washer, lock washer, and a nut. All studs must be anchored to concrete or
welded to a steel backing plate. Anchor bolts can be used for blind structures where there is
no access to the rear.
