| High Security Mechanism Housing: Precision- annealed ASTM A536 ductile iron. Rugged, extremely substantial construction. Tensile strength of a minimum of 60,000 PSI. Brinell hardness of 143-187. Experience on location has proven its resistance to the elements, tampering and abuse. The mechanical housing is of modern design, neat and free of rough surfaces, sharp corners or edges.
Housing Cap: Precision-annealed ASTM A536 ductile cast iron with a tensile strength of a minimum of 60,000 PSI. High security slide lock cap features easy access to meter mechanism for servicing and protects the mechanism unit from dust and moisture. The locking arrangement provides simultaneous and positive positioning of the unit mechanism. MacKay housings are easily distinguished by the hex top.
Display Window: Large, clear, high-impact polycarbonate window displays the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) of our electronic unit and provides excellent visibility. It is completely sealed for maximum element and dust protection.
Instruction Plates: Large, easy-to-read plates on the door and hours of enforcement cards in the cap contain simple operating instructions.
Ventilation: Strategically placed vents in dome cap ensure excellent visibility and reduced condensation both above and below mechanism level.
Enforcement Hours Card: To facilitate easy removal, in the event of a change in enforcement hours, a card slot is provided under the complete protection of the housing dome. Its position in the meter is clearly visible.
Coin Box Housing: Made of ductile iron. This extremely rugged material has a tensile strength of a minimum of 65,000 PSI. The design has been engineered to afford increased protection against vandalism, breakage and theft.
Door: The lower vault door is made of ductile iron having a tensile strength of a minimum of 65,000 PSI. To minimize the risk of unauthorized entry, it is precision-machined to a tolerance of 0.005 inch and designed to withstand tampering by prying or hammering with ordinary hand tools. The door's internal coupling eliminates the necessity of exposed and vulnerable hinges.

Collection Compartment: The collection compartment is secure against entry from the mechanism compartment. With the door open, the coin box is easily accessible. The vault is engineered for precise alignment to ensure trouble-free coin acceptance of most coins found in the world today, without need for modification.
Finish: The burr-free, raw casting is conversion-coated in a five-stage power spray pre-treatment system which includes cleaning, rinsing, zinc phosphate coating, rinsing again, and then sealing. The pre-treatment system is designed to remove grime and strengthens paint bonding. It also establishes a chemical coating on the surface which will slow corrosion in the case of paint damage. The conversion-coated castings are then electro-statically powder coated with high-quality paint. The castings are cured at predetermined temperatures for the appropriate time. Our castings have successfully passed the ASTM-BL 17 1000-hour salt spray resistance-to-corrosion test.
Locks: Multi-tumbler and highly pick-resistant. The security lock in the door is encased in tough ductile iron, with minimum area exposed, reducing its vulnerability to vandalism. Various types of security locks are available.
Materials: Full hard brass, stainless steel, aluminum stampings, Zamac and ductile iron castings and high-quality powder paint finish. All parts fabricated from steel are plated to industry standards.
Meter Post: Standard Requirements: 5.1cm (2 inch) inner diameter standard galvanized pipe. Small weep and air vent holes drilled to reduce condensation and prolong pipe life. These weep holes should be located approximately 30.5cm (12 inches) from the top and 30.5cm (12 inches) from the bottom on opposite sides from each other. Holes should be about 1.27cm (1/2 inch) in diameter.
Typical Installation: Pipe level minimum 81.6cm (32 1/8 inches) above walk. Parking meter height 53.0cm (207/8 inches). Overall meter height 134.5cm (53 inches). Contact your local Distributor or our Customer Service Department for information on the best method of installation for your location.
Warranty: J.J. MacKay Canada Limited guarantees, for a period of one year from the date of shipment, to repair or replace any of its housing parts determined to be defective in materials and/or workmanship, under normal use and service.
