 TOP-OF-POLE MOUNTS

ELEVATION ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

Standard Top-of-Pole Mounts have six tilt-angle settings. These positions are positive locking to avoid the possibility of slippage. The racks are balanced about the pivot bolt to make adjustment easy. Other tilt combinations and racks welded at fixed angles are offered as options.

WINDLOADING CAPABILITY

Standard models are designed and warranteed to withstand windloads of 30 lbs./ft2 (approximately 90mph). Designs capable of withstanding greater loads are available for high-wind areas.

Top-of-Pole Mounts are available in several sizes ranging from 1-module through 24-modules. The rack design is determined by the area of module to be mounted; not necessarily the number of modules. This sheet describes our standard line of mounts.

Strongbacks, Elevation Pivots and Mounting Sleeves are made of heavy gauge steel flat bar, square tubing and pipe or mechanical tubing conforming to ASTM A36 and ASTM A500-Grade B. All parts are mig-welded, burrs are removed, corners are coped and edges are sanded. Steel parts are coated with a minimum of two coats of industrial urethane enamel.

Module Rails are made of mill-finish 6061-T6 structural aluminum angle. All holes are deburred and edges are coped and sanded. Stainless steel module mounting hardware is provided with each rack. Standard rack assembly hardware is zinc-plated Grade 5.

MOUNTING

All racks have sleeves sized to slip over readily-available standard sizes of installer-supplied SCH40 steel pipe. The mounting sleeves have set bolts spaced 90° apart to firmly secure the rack to the pole.

PAINTED STEEL (PS) SIDE-OF-POLE MOUNTS:

Pole brackets, strongbacks and support struts are made of heavy gauge steel flat bar and square tubing conforming to ASTM A36 and ASTM A500-Grade B. All parts are mig-welded, burrs are removed, corners are coped and edges are sanded. Steel parts are coated with a minimum of two coats of industrial urethane enamel.

Module Rails are made of mill-finish 6061-T6 structural aluminum angle. All holes are deburred and edges are coped and sanded.Stainless steel module mounting hardware is provided with each rack. Standard rack assembly hardware is zinc-plated Grade 5.

WINDLOADING CAPABILITY

AL & PS: Standard models are designed and warranteed to withstand windloads of 30 lbs./ft2 (approximately 90 mph). Designs capable of withstanding greater loads are available for high-wind areas.

MOUNTING

AL & PS: Most DP&W Side-of-Pole Mounts are attached to the pole with stainless steel band clamps (provided). Two or four band clamps are used depending on the design. Series AL-22 and PS-28 come with band clamps for 3” to 5” OD poles. All other racks are supplied with clamps for 2” to 4” OD poles. Many other sizes are available; please specify pole sizes when ordering. These racks can also be u-bolted or lag-bolted to poles (square or round) and to the sides of buildings or other vertical surfaces. Brackets are also available for mounting to ROHN towers and wood telephone poles.

SIDE-OF-POLE MOUNTS:

ALUMINUM (AL) SIDE-OF-POLE MOUNTS: Formed aluminum parts are made of 5052-H32 aluminum. All extrusions used are 6061-T6 structural alloy. Corners are coped, edges are sanded and holes are deburred.

Stainless steel module mounting hardware and rack assembly hardware are provided with each rack.

ELEVATION ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

Tilt-angle adjustment varies with rack design.
