IoT Pro Pedal Module

Installation Guide

This guide will walk you through two installation configurations for the IoT Pro Pedal Module in a ring buoy housing. The process typically takes 1 hour for a standard installation.

Option A: Inside the Ring Buoy Housing

This installation should be followed when the ring buoy housing has a flat bottom with sufficient headroom for the IoT Pro Pedal Module to fit, such as the model shown below.


Parts Needed

Installation

Always prioritize safety when working with power tools and wear appropriate protective gear, such as safety goggles and gloves

  1. Position the ring buoy housing so that the bottom of the housing is easily accessible

  2. Locate the center point of the bottom flat section (shown with a red circle in the below template) and drill four holes with the 6.5 mm drill bit according to the template

  3. Assemble four M6x30 bolts with two flat washers and a standard M6 nut each, as shown below using the 10 mm socket and spanner


  4. Place the IoT Pro Pedal Module onto the assembled bolts, with the magnet side of the module situated in the middle of the ring buoy housing

  5. Assemble four M6 serrated nuts onto the bolts and tighten with the 10 mm spanner/ hexagon socket depending on accessibility



Option B: Outside the Ring Buoy Housing

This installation should be followed when the ring buoy housing does not have a flat bottom, such as the model shown below.


Parts Needed

Installation

Always prioritize safety when working with power tools and wear appropriate protective gear, such as safety goggles and gloves

  1. The following process should only be followed if the IoT Pro Pedal Module configuration needs to be changed from Option A to Option B.

    If your module is pre-configured for Option B, skip to step 2

    1. Remove the M4 nuts holding the springs bracket with the 7 mm spanner


    2. Remove the springs from underneath the bracket and install them on the opposite side


    3. Install the provided spring retainers onto the springs followed by the two M4 nuts

      1. The M4 nuts should be tightened by hand with the 7 mm spanner until the top of the nut is flush with the end of the screw


    4. Remove the M5 bolt and flat washer installed on the magnet side of the module and replace with an M5x50 bolt (or appropriate length) whilst re-using the same flat washer

      1. Tighten the bolt to 1±0.05 Nm with a calibrated torque wrench


  2. Identify the optimal location for the IoT Pro Pedal Module depending on the ring buoy housing design

    1. Use the 6.5 mm drill bit and the cone drill bit to drill holes according to the below template (orientation will depend on the identified location)

      1. The M5 bolt will pass through the 15 mm diameter hole, the Pedal Module should be installed in such a position so that the M5 bolt is in constant contact with the ring buoy

    2. The ring buoy should provide enough force through the M5 bolt to push against the springs, such that the Pedal Module is open when the ring buoy is within the housing

      1. This force can be tuned by adding/removing washers between the Pedal Module and the housing

    3. When the ring buoy is removed, the Pedal Module should close without any obstructions
