Overview
The BA/T#-RA is a rigid, stainless steel, averaging, duct mounted 4-20mA or Voltage temperature transmitter probe. It
comes in a variety of probe lengths and optional mounting enclosures shown below. The 4-20mA transmitter can be
ordered with 100Ω (385), 1KΩ (385) RTDs or 10KΩ type 2 thermistor sensors. A 0-5VDC or 0-10VDC transmitter is also
available with the 10KΩ type 2 thermistor sensor. Special high accuracy RTD matched transmitters (M) are available
which match the sensor to the transmitter for improved accuracy.

Mounting
1. Place the sensor in the middle of
the duct going through temperature
stratied air, to achieve the best
temperature reading. (See Fig. 1)
2. Drill the probe hole as depicted
below for the enclosure being used.
(Handy Box, BB, BB2, WP, EU).
Insert the probe into the duct.

3. Mount the enclosure to the duct
using BAPI recommeded #8
screws through a minimum of two
opposing mounting tabs provided.
Weatherproof (WP) enclosures will
require assembly of the mounting
tabs on opposite corners. A 1/8
inch pilot screw hole in the duct
makes mounting easier through the
mounting tabs. Use the enclosure
tabs to mark the pilot hole locations.
4. Snug up the sensors so that the
foam backing is depressed to
prevent air leakage but do not overtighten or strip the screw threads.
