Ranger neck-mount details

A closer look at the Ranger mounting and adapter architecture.

Integration flexibility

A neck-mount platform designed around system integration.

Ranger is designed for neck-mounted installation and can support application-specific valve-thread and interface requirements.

Standard adapter options use M18x1.5 valve threads, with 5/8-inch threads available as an option. Custom valve threads up to M25 / 1 inch can be accommodated upon request.

Other mounting strategies may also be considered where the system design requires a different integration approach.

Standard Adapter Threads M18x1.5 valve threads, with 5/8-inch optional.
Custom Valve Threads Custom threads up to M25 / 1 inch available upon request.
Mounting Designed for neck mounting; other mounting strategies may be considered.
TPRD Integration Optional depending on application requirements; non-standard threads can accept a TPRD through an adapter.
