![17 Brand of ACOEM 2. INSTALLATION PREREQUISITES 2.1. SAFETY Refer to safety instructions, safety standards and procedures before installing any device. 2.2. SITE SURVEY At this step the site survey is done. The location of the gateway, sensors and expanders are identified in a site plan and ensure to each sensor the appropriate radio coverage. 2.3. FASTENING SUPPORT The gateway must be placed on a wall or a pole at a height of about 5m [16 ft]. Adequate mounting support has to be installed on site (such as mast) if necessary and can therefore require the use of support facilities and operations of specific civil engineering if needed for the configuration of the area. 2.4. NETWORK AND POWER The gateway has to be powered and connected to the customer IP network Prior to installation, the site must be equipped with both power and ethernet connections. A technical cabinet can be necessary. The link to the customer IP network can be fiber-optic, copper…](https://usermanual.wiki/ACOEM/EGL1101.User-manual-2-2AC3Z-EGL1101-pdf/User-Guide-2553674-Page-17.png)
![18 Brand of ACOEM 3. GATEWAY INSTALLATION The gateway is fully assembled and ready to be deployed upon delivery. Only one gateway is necessary to ensure the operation of the whole multi-hop wireless infrastructure. Additional gateway may be necessary depending on The gateway is linking the wireless network of Eagle devices (ISA100.11a) to an IP network where the data are processed. In hazardous environments, the operator has to arrange organizational safety measures which reliably prevent the occurrence of an ignitable atmosphere, by default reduce the probability that a flammable atmosphere can occur at all (employing the use of suitable gas detection systems). 3.1. LOCATION The location of the gateway is very important. It must be placed at a height of about 5m [16 ft]. It must comply with a maximum radius of 100m [328 ft] radio coverage. The housing face with OneProd logo indicates the embedded antenna location. This face must be oriented in the direction of the sensors and expanders. The radio link is sensible to physical obstacles, such as vehicles, tanks, or walls. If the distance between the gateway and sensors or expanders exceed 100m [328 ft], it may be necessary to add an additional expander to improve the signal strength.

![23 Brand of ACOEM 4. SENSORS INSTALLATION 4.1. SENSOR LOCATION The sensors are mounted on the equipment to monitor following the rules for vibration sensor installation. Leave enough space around the sensor to ensure the best transmission/reception possible of radio signals. At least 100 mm around the device antenna (plastic cap). If the sensor has to be installed in tiny spaces, the use of an expander might be a solution to improve the radio coverage (if necessary). Figure 23 : clear space around the sensor/expander 4.2.

![29 Brand of ACOEM 4.2.5. Temporary mount Performing field test during a site survey may require a temporary mount. This allows testing locations and orientations of the farthest sensors or those with doubts about their reception because of their situation (metallic surroundings, casing, guards…) to get the best coverage possible. A magnetic mount is the best solution in that specific case. Screw the sensor on the magnetic base using appropriated stud or bolt (M6). Step 1. Place the system on the location to test Step 2.NOTE: An adapter stud may be required depending on the design of the magnetic base to allow M6 mount.

![30 Brand of ACOEM 5. EXPANDER INSTALLATION 5.1. EXPANDER LOCATION The location of the expanders is very important. It must comply with a maximum radius of 50m radio coverage. It must be located in the coverage of the gateway or of another expander. It is best practice to install the expanders at high to improve the coverage. This way the expander has a clear view of the sensors close to it. The blue plastic cap is where the embedded antenna is located. It must be oriented in the direction of the sensors or at least vertically. The radio link is sensible to physical obstacles, such as vehicles, tanks, or walls. If the distance between an expander and sensors exceed 50m or an obstacle is present, it may be necessary to add an additional expander to improve the signal strength. 5.2. EXPANDER MOUNTING A damp cloth should be used when installing or taking off the gateway in hazardous areas to eliminate static electricity resulting from this operation. Expander shares the same design as sensors. See “Figure 24: sensor and expander mounting interface (threads, hex head)” on page 31.

Do not hit the plastic cap. Do not tighten the expander by the plastic cap 4 mounting modes: Ball-joint mount : the most appropriate mounting allowing precise orientation Direct mounting: M6 stud on a flat surface Cementing pad: the easiest way to install Temporary mount: only for testing wireless coverage before final assembly. 5.2.1. Ball-joint mount The expander is fixed very quickly on a pole or on a wall using a ball-joint mount. The ball-joint mount is constituted of: A ball-joint head Screw the expander on M6-1 x 6MM male threaded post of the ball-joint head. A ball-joint base The base is to be pegged on a wall or on a pole. The mounting on a pole requires a clamp, nuts and washers. The mounting on a wall is done using four screws and anchors. The mounting on a structure requires bolts nuts and washers. An arm The arm is joining the two ball-joints allowing precise orientation of the expander.](https://usermanual.wiki/ACOEM/EGL1101.User-manual-2-2AC3Z-EGL1101-pdf/User-Guide-2553674-Page-30.png)
