CHAPTER 2 Hardware Installation
Installation Instructions
1. Locate the mounting position of the camera so that it cannot be interfered
with either intentionally or accidentally.
2. Ensure the mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight
of the camera and mounting hardware under all expected conditions of
load, vibration and temperature.
The MIC 412 must be secured to one of the following surfaces:
• Concrete Solid/Cast
• Concrete Masonry Unit (Concrete Block)
• Brick (all type)
• Metal (Steel/Aluminum, minimum 1/8-in. thick)
3. Fit the mounting brackets securely, observing all appropriate safety
precautions and local building regulations.
4. Ensure that the mating 12-pin connector is fitted properly in the camera
plug. Confirm that the 25 mm connector sleeve on the top of the composite
cable is done up tightly (approx. four turns from start of thread
engagement).
5. Earth the camera using one of the securing bolts. Only earth the camera at
a single point to prevent earth loops and hum bars.
6. M8 x 20mm Stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers should be used to
secure the 4 in. PCD camera base to the mounting bracket. An additional
Nebar gasket or suitable silicone sealant can be used to ensure a water
tight seal between the 4 in. PCD base and mounting surface. Ensure all
bolts are securely tightened. Secure all cabling and conduit.
Refer to the MIC Series Bracketry Installation Guide for more information
about each MIC mounting option.
CAUTION: If the camera is mounted ball down it is
essential that the connector and base area of the camera
are completely sealed from water ingress.
CAUTION: Any water getting into the connector is liable to
cause corrosion to the connector pins leading to unreliable
operation of the camera unit.
CAUTION: To prevent water penetrating the composite
cable connector threads, the 25 mm thread should be
sealed at final installation using PTFE tape. Alternatively a
suitable sealant may be liberally applied to the thread prior
to final tightening.
CAUTION: Ensure that the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA,
Canadian Electric Code, and all local country codes are
observed when installing this product. Ensure a strong safety
chain is used to secure the MIC 412 camera to prevent any
danger of dropping the product during installation. Particular care
should be taken with MIC 412 models due to the additional
weight.
CAUTION: Fasteners are not supplied with the camera since it
depends on the material to which it is attached. The material
must accommodate a minimum pull out strength of 275 kg
(600 lbs.) Fasteners can include wedge ancho rs, 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 9 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.
