Non-Penetrating Roof Mount Installation Guide

PHASE 1

Parts List

Non-Penetrating Roof Mount Installation
Non-Penetrating Camera Roof Mount

Installation Notes:

  • Verify installation location can support the weight of the mount and the concrete blocks used to weigh it down
  • Use the provided 1/2’’ wrench for roof mount assembly
  • For ease of installation, leave all fasteners slightly loose and tighten once the base angles, brace tubes, and mounting pole are installed and square
  • At least 200 lbs of weight must be used to secure roof mount (6 standard concrete blocks depicted not included)
  • Add weight evenly to base prior to installing camera/solar panel
  • For camera mounting instructions, please refer to the installation guide included with your camera system

Step 1:

  • Remove the 6 Base Angle Brackets (item 2) from the packaging and lay each piece as pictured to the right. Pay careful attention to the angle orientation of each piece.

     

  • Using the 5/16” – 3/4” Carriage Bolt (item 5), with Lock Washer (item 7) and Nut (item 6) assemble the Base Angle Brackets in all 8 locations around the base. This includes each corner and the ends of each of the two middle Base Angle Brackets.

Step 2:

  • Remove the 4 Brace Tubes (item 3) from the packaging and loosely secure them to the sides of each of the outside Base Angle Brackets using the remaining 5/16” – 3/4”, Carriage Bolts, Lock Washers and Nuts. 

Step 3:

  • Secure each of the Brace Tubes to the Mounting Pole (item 1), using the 5/16” – 3 1/2” (item 4), Carriage Bolts with Lock Washer and Nut.

Step 4:

  • Secure each of the Brace Tubes to the Mounting Pole (item 1), using the 5/16” – 3 1/2” (item 4), Carriage Bolts with Lock Washer and Nut. 

Step 5:

  • Carefully place 6 concrete blocks (not included) within the Base Angle Brackets. This weighs the base down, preventing it from tipping easily.

Step 6: (PTZ and XL model users, skip to Phase 2)

  • Mount your Senersa Systems Camera and Solar Panel using the instructions provided with your camera. Use 2 of the 4 provided band clamps for the MC Series Cameras, or use all 4 band clamps if installing the SiteWatch PRO2 camera. Place the Solar Panel as low as possible, and place the camera as high as possible on the mounting pole.

Step 1:

  • Assemble two (qty 2) cross bars
  • Ensure the 2 different angle mounts are used (left and right). The angle mounts are mirrors of each other.
  • Ensure the chamfered edge on each of the angle mounts is facing upward.
  • Leave the bolted connections loose enough such that the
    angle mounts can slide.
  • Secure the angle mounts to the cross bar using 3/8”- 16, 1” long serrated flange bolt with lock washer and nut.
    Repeat in 4 locations per assembly (8 locations total)

Step 3:

  • Secure each of the Brace Tubes to the Mounting Pole (item 1), using the 5/16” – 3 1/2” (item 4), Carriage Bolts with Lock Washer and Nut. 
  • Secure the Solar Panel bracket to the angle mounts using
    1/4”-20, 5/8” long serrated flange bolt with lock washer
    and nut. Repeat in all 4 locations.
  • Leave connections loose enough to allow for cross bar to rotate slightly.
