If the diffuser ha s an adjustable pattern, the discharge air direction must be adjusted to a
horizontal pattern. This horizontal pattern will insure a representative sample of room air

Note:
Hand tighten only - do not overtighten.
1. Determine the sensor enclosure mounting location on the duct (see Figure 16)
(predetermine the knockout hole location for routing of conduit). The sensor should be
serpentined through the duct in a pattern that will expose it to all areas where variations
of temperature may occur. If duct can not be entered, wrap the element around a section
of conduit and place the conduit diagonally in the duct. Consider using part number
M-648 mounting clips when the inside of the duct can be accessed.
C A U T I O N
Do not make sharp bends in the elem ent.
2. Use the mounting flan ge suppl ied a s a temp late (or r efer to Fi gure 1 4 f or duc t mountin g

When a duct sensor is being replaced at a location wher e an existing mounting hol e size
exceeds the coverage of the adaptor flange, use the existing mounting plate as follows:
1. Remove the existing unit from the duct. Note location of the unit’s conduit hole.
2. Remove (and set aside for later use) the conduit nut securi ng the mount ing pl ate to t he
sensor.
3. Remove the mounting plate from the old sensor.
4. Place the mounting plate on the new sensor and secure wit h the conduit nut removed
from the old sensor . Do not include the plastic adaptor flange.
5. When mounting the sensor to th e duct, be sur e the condui t hole is located app ropriate ly.

Shielded cable must be used when it is necessary to install the sensor lead in the same
conduit with power wiring, or when it is known that high RFI/EMI generating devices are
near. System ground the shield at the controller only on the COM (-) terminal or blu e (-)
lead. Do not use an earth ground. Do not use the enclosure as a junct ion box for other
contro l circuits.
It is generally advisable to use flexible conduit to connect enclosure to rigid conduit.
