All variants in the RAS family of robust radars have 4x M8 tapped holes in the underside, in a 4” PCD arrangement.
The RAS3 radar fixing holes are 11mm deep: care should be taken in the selection of fixing lengths.
4” PCD dictates hole centres with a 71.84mm spacing.
Every radar is supplied with a stainless steel M8 fixings pack; it is recommended that these are tightened to 20 Nm, and that the fixing selected allows for ≥8mm thread engagement within the base of the radar.
It is recommended to orient the radar with the connector panel facing “down” ,”back”, “South” or “in”. The radar presents its' output referenced to a 0° or North point directly opposite to the connectors.
Be sure to mount the radar level, to ensure that it presents a consistent view of its’s surroundings in every direction.
When designing a mounting bracket for a specific application, it can sometimes be helpful to add in the opportunity for adjustment in each of the mounting angles to aid easy commissioning
The centreline of the RAS3 radar’s output is approximately 175mm above the base of the unit.
