SnapBase® Locking System

The patented screwless locking system developed by Holdstein Solutions is designed for use in any industrial environment, even under harsh weather conditions.

1. The SnapBase® and Its Components

Understanding the SnapBase®

The SnapBase® consists of a main base, some movable parts, and an elastomeric ring for maintaining pressure (Item C), which we will explain later.

The main base (Item A) should be fixed to a clean, flat surface and aligned according to the type of sensor it will receive. The movable part intended for locking is called the Clamp (Item B).

How to Mount the SnapBase® to a Surface

1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the surface is clean and flat to secure a firm attachment.
2. Align the Main Base: Align the main base (Item A) according to the type of sensor it will receive.
3. Secure the Base: Use appropriate screws or adhesive to firmly attach the main base to the surface.
4. Check Alignment: Ensure the base is properly aligned to facilitate sensor installation.

3. Attaching the Sensor to the SnapBase®

What You Need:

For this example, we will use the Vibration and Shock Sensor (Item D). Follow these steps to ensure a perfect attachment:

1. Prepare the SnapBase: Ensure the SnapBase is clean and free of debris that could interfere with the attachment.
2. Open the Clamps: Open the clamps, preparing the base to receive the sensor.
3. Align the Sensor: Align the sensor within the SnapBase.

4. Attach the Sensor: Once the sensor is perfectly seated in the base without any interference, close the clamps symmetrically in pairs.

5. Confirm Locking: A click will be heard, indicating the sensor is securely locked in place.
