CM106 Tripod

1. General

The CM106 is a general purpose tripod that can be used for mounting sensors,
solar panels, antennas, and instrument enclosures (see FIGURE 1-1). The
CM106 is constructed from galvanized steel, with individually adjustable legs
that allow installation over uneven terrain. Height of the mast is 2.1 m (7 ft),
or 3 m (10 ft) with the mast extension.

The CM106 includes lightning and ground rods, ground cables, UV resistant
cable ties, and stakes for securing the tripod feet to the ground. An optional
guy kit is recommended for sites that experience high wind speeds (see Section
2, Specifications). Instrument enclosures can be purchased with mounting
brackets that attach to either the mast or leg section as shown in Section 5.7,
Enclosure Attachment.

The CM106 can be used for a variety of applications. For meteorological
stations, sensors are mounted to the tripod using mounting brackets appropriate
for the model of sensor. For non-meteorological applications, the tripod can be
used to mount instrument enclosures, solar panels, junction boxes, or antennas.

WARNING

Tripod installation near power lines is dangerous. The Tripod installation near power lines is dangerous. The
minimum safe recommended distance from overhead
power lines is 2 times the height of the tripod and mast
combined. Call Blue Stakes to locate buried utilities
prior to installation.

The tripod base has three independently adjustable legs allowing the tripod to
be installed over non-level terrain.

Prepare the area where the tripod will be installed. The tripod requires an area
approximately 9.3 ft (2.8 m) in diameter. Natural vegetation and the ground
surface should be disturbed as little as possible, but brush and tall weeds should
be removed.

Stand the tripod base up on end, and rotate the feet perpendicular to the legs.
Each leg has a slide collar and T-knob with a spring-loaded pin that locks into
holes located on the underside of the leg as shown in FIGURE 5-1.

5.1.1 Mounting on a Relatively Flat Area

Loosen the T-knob and extend each leg until the pin engages in a hole (depress
the tab to disengage the pin from a hole). With the legs extended, orient the
tripod so that one of the legs points South (assuming the instrument enclosure
with –MM Mast Mount bracket will face North). If the instrument enclosure
has the –LM Leg Mount bracket, orient the tripod so the enclosure will mount

to one of the three leg mount positions on the tripod, facing the desired
direction. The tripod is typically plumbed after the mast has been installed, as
described in Section 5.2, Mast.

5.1.2 Mounting on an Incline

Loosen the T-knob and extend each leg until the pin engages in a hole (depress
the tab to disengage the pin from a hole). With the legs extended, orient the
tripod so that one leg points downhill and the other two legs point uphill. The
tripod is more stable with only one leg pointed downhill because the mast is
closer to the center of the footprint (see FIGURE 5-2).

The tripod is typically plumbed after the mast has been installed, as described
in Section 5.2, Mast.

below the lower bolts and rests on the tab. Tighten the six bolts to secure the
mast.

Plumb the tripod by adjusting the northeast and south facing legs. With a level
on the East side of the mast, adjust the Northeast leg for plumb. With the level
on the South side of the mast, adjust the South leg for plumb. Tighten the
T-knobs after the adjustments have been made.

Unscrew the turnbuckles so that only 1/2 in. of thread extends beyond the
inside of the turnbuckle body. Attach the case and turnbuckle to the tripod leg
as shown in FIGURE 5-6. Loosen the Phillips screw, and remove the slack in
the guy line by feeding the load end of the guy wire through the wedge while
pulling up on the dead end. If the load end of the guy wire can’t be fed through
the case, use a small flat screwdriver to push the wedge forward into the case to
disengage wedge.

After the slack has been removed from the guy lines, tighten the Phillips
screws and tighten the turnbuckles to tension the guy lines.

5.4 Staking the Tripod Feet

Six stakes are provided for securing the tripod feet to the ground. Drive two
stakes through holes in each foot at an angle as shown in FIGURE 5-7.

Stakes may not be adequate depending on soil structure, maximum wind
speeds experienced at the site, mast height, or wind load from the
instrumentation. For questionable situations, additional stakes (pn 17049) or
even concrete footings for the tripod feet and guy anchors should be
considered.

can be mounted to the tripod mast (above the legs) with the –MM Mast Mount
bracket option. All enclosure models except the ENC16/18 can be mounted to
the tripod base and leg with the –LM Leg Mount bracket option. Two
enclosures with the –LM brackets can be mounted in a “back to back”
configuration.
