The sensor is housed in a rugged aluminum enclosure with a mounting
flange.
The housing isn't completely waterproof, so keep the
sensor away from direct contact with water spray or
splash.
The sensor enclosure includes keyhole slots, located at the rear of the
sensors, which aid in installations of limited access. You can mount the
sensors either horizontally or vertically; see Figure 1 in Section 2, "Intro-
duction," for case and mounting dimensions.
Northstar ships each sensor system with the following parts; check with
Northstar if these parts aren't included with your sensor.
