Abstract

A universal sensor mount for mounting a sensor module to a machine in a precise orientation and a corresponding sensor module installation method. The universal sensor mount includes a main body having a central main axis. A machine mounting member extends from the main body in a first direction substantially parallel to the main axis for attachment to the machine. A threaded sensor module mounting member extends from the main body in a second direction substantially parallel to the main axis for threaded attachment to the sensor module. The sensor module mounting member is rotatable relative to the main body. An adjustable locking member in the main body is operable to lock the sensor module mounting member in a selected rotational position. The selected rotational position of the sensor module mounting member determines a rotational position of the sensor module when it is attached to the sensor module mounting member.
