Setting Up and Installing Mounting Plates 
Setting Up Mounting Plates 
It’s a good idea to get all your mounting plates set up with KwikLink connector bases or 
ArmorBlock cable bases before installation, as your system layout determines. 
Note:  ArmorBlock cable bases are installed on mounting plates 
perpendicular in orientation to the flat cable runs. 
Vacuum hoppers/receiver stations require 8-connector ArmorBlocks; vacuum 
pumps and central alarm stations require 4-connector ArmorBlocks. 
Make sure that each mounting plate has properly attached tube clamps as required. Each 
mounting plate requires two (2) tube clamps.
 Always use locking washers, especially in 
high-vibration environments.

Installing Assembled Mounting Plates 
After you’ve set up the mounting plates: 
1.  Install them at each node location by clipping the tubing clamps onto the vacuum 
tube, just before the node area (such as a T-valve). 
2.  Orient the mounting plate parallel with the flat cables and at a 30º to 45º angle so the 
KwikLink connector or ArmorBlock faces the operator on the floor; torque the tubing 
clamp fasteners until tight. 
The flat cable will be installed inside KwikLink connectors and ArmorBlocks as described in 
the following sections of this chapter.
