| Fig 1A Rotator mounts inside sign at the bottom. The Rotator size is based on the area, shape, and weight of sign. The center shaft and collector are stationary while the frame of rotator turns. Fig 2 Rotator is mounted above sign and usually includes frame and louver covers to protect from weather. This is a hanging rotator and sign, special features machined in rotator are provided to make this a safe installation. |
