Section 1. Advanced Pressure Monitor II Rough-In
Installation
For the Advanced Pressure Monitor II (APM2) to be installed correctly, the rough-in phase of the project must
be completed properly. This section will outline the specific considerations the General Contractor must pay
attention to so that the final wiring and commissioning will go smoothly.
During rough-in installation, the field wiring and plumbing can be run in the walls and routed between the
triple gang electrical box, the Building Management System (BMS), door contact switch, remote sensors (if
applicable) power supply, earth ground and so on.
If you’re installing the APM2 monitor, continue to to Section 1.1 Required Parts to be Supplied by the Installer.

APM2
•All circuits must conform to the requirements of an NEC Class 2 (dry) circuit.
•Use multiple transformers instead of larger transformers when more than 100 VA is required.
•Each pressurization zone should have either a dedicated single-phase primary circuit, or a secondary circuit
disconnect.
•Refer to Phoenix Recommended Cables on page 33 for approved cable manufacturers and wire types.
•Use stranded wire for ease of installation.
•Follow good wiring practices:
• Locate cables away from sources of electrical interference (EMI/RFI).
• Do not run signal or communication cable in the same conduit or wire way as power cables.
• If signal cable must cross power cables place these at a 90-degree angle.
• Shield or drain wires, if required, should be wrapped with insulating tape to prevent contact with exposed
conductors or contacts.
• Maintain a consistent color code or polarity all the way through the wiring system.
• Power supply and signal isolation on I/O devices vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Verify the
wiring device manufacturer’s recommendations for isolating power and signal common connections and
maintain polarity.
• Local and national electrical codes take precedence.

Advanced Pressure Monitor II Rough-In Installation
Installation Overview
•Strip 0.25" (6.4 mm) of insulation from each conductor, twist the strands, insert the conductor fully into
the terminal block, and tighten the terminal.
•Test the wire connection by pulling on each conductor.
WARNING: Wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician according to local and state codes.
1.3.2 Wiring Triple Gang Electrical Box
USE ONLY THE KNOCKOUTS ON THE TOP OR BOTTOM AT THE BACK OF THE ROUGH-IN
ELECTRICAL BOX. The front knockouts will be inaccessible once the APM2 is installed. Strain relief and seal
box as required.
NOTE:Install power and signal wires into separate knockouts to avoid noise.
Figure 1-2. Wiring in the Triple Gang Electrical Box
1.3.3 Plumbing Rough-In
If the internal pressure sensor will be used, then typically a Pressure Pickup Port is installed in the monitored
room and another one is installed in the reference area (typically a hallway). 0.25" nylon tubing is typically used
to bring the pressure signal from this point of measurement to the pressure inputs on the back of the APM2.
Install a single gang electrical box anywhere inside the room, typically high on the wall in an inconspicuous area.
This will be used for the room pressure signal (room monitor pressure port labeled HIGH). Run 0.25" tubing
from this electrical box to the triple gang box that the pressure monitor will be mounted to in the finish stage
of the installation.
CAUTION:Be careful in running the tubing in a way that the tube is protected from being damaged by being cut
or penetrated by screws or nails or being crimped so that the pressure signal integrity is affected. Do
not tighten strain reliefs so that they crimp the tubing. Tape the open ends of the tubes closed to
prevent contamination of the inside of the tubing.
Install a second single gang box on the corridor, ante room or other reference pressure area. This will be used
for the low pressure side or reference side pressure signal. This will be run to the triple gang box and connected
to the APM2 pressure port labeled LOW.

Advanced Pressure Monitor II Rough-In Installation
Installation Overview
If an external sensor will be used then run the pressure signals (room and reference) to the remote transducer.
Figure 1-3. Pressure Pickup Port Installation
1.3.4 Use of External Transducers
The APM2 has the option to use the internal pressure sensor or external pressure transducers (ordered
separately). If external pressure sensors are being used then no tubing needs to be run into the electrical box.
Instead the remote pressure transducer will be separately mounted, plumbed and wired. Only the wire for the
analog output of that transducer(s) will be run to the APM2. If two rooms are being monitored, you have the
choice to use the internal pressure sensor and an external (remote) transducer for the second room, or two
external remote transducers may be used and wired to the analog inputs in the back of the unit.
NOTE:See Phoenix Recommended Cables on page 33 for approved cable manufacturers and wire types.
Layout the system in terms of wiring:
•Power: 24 Vac, 9 VA
•Annunciator/relay: remote alarm wiring if being used
•Analog output: 0-5 or 0-10 Vdc or 4-20 mA.
•Analog Input wiring: there are two analog inputs that can be used to bring signals from remote pressure
transducers
•Digital Input: the digital input can be used as a door status indication, these would be wired to a door switch
mounted in the door jamb.
Once the installation has been planned, locate and mount the electrical box and bring all tubing, power, earth
ground, analog input, digital input, relay/annunciator, analog output communications wiring into the triple
gang box.

1.3.5 Remote Annunicator
If an remote annunciator will be used, then mount a single gang electrical box in the desired location and run
wires to it.
Figure 1-4. Remote Annunciator
1.4 Plumbing (Finish)
Use the following procedure for all room types positive, negative or neutral.
The biggest problem that can occur during plumbing is kinking of the often stiff nylon 0.25" tubing that is used
for running pressure signals from the APM2 to the monitored spaces. To prevent buckling and collapse of this
stiff tubing inside the electrical box, use the supplied soft silicone tubing with integrated springs and tubing
adapters to transition from the field tubing to the pressure fittings on the APM2.

Wiring
Attach pressure tubing as follows:
1. Install the supplied silicone tube (with integrated spring) and attached barbed tube adaptor onto the end of
the 0.25 field tubing. Thread the tubes, with installed adaptor, through the conduit opening at the bottom
of the electrical box.
2. Next push the open end of the soft silicone tubing onto the APM2 pressure tube port labeled "HIGH".
3. For the most pressure stable operation, a Pressure Pickup Port installed in the reference pressure area is also
recommended. In this case, install the Pressure Pickup Port in a hallway or reference space.
4. Next push the open end of the soft silicone tubing onto the APM2 pressure tube port labeled "LOW".

A 15 Vdc (14.8 to 15.2) excitation is available to power up to two transducers. They can source 90 mA max.
combined. It is labeled as +15 on the connectors.
If using this to power a remote transducer, connect this to the positive excitation terminal of the transducer.
1.5.3.1 Measuring Analog Inputs
There are three potential analog inputs that can be measured, 0-5, 0-10 and 4-20 mA.
•For 0-5 or 0-10 Vdc inputs connect the positive (+) output of the transducer to terminal labeled IN1, connect the common output of the transducer to the terminal labeled COM.
•For 4-20 mA loops install a 250 ohm resistor between the terminals labeled In1 or IN2 (whichever input
you’re going to) and COM. The monitor will be measuring the voltage across this resistor as 1-5 Vdc corresponding to 4-20 mA.
If you will be monitoring the status of a door position, then wire the contacts labeled DOOR to the normally
open contacts on a door jamb switch. The monitor will show the door "Warning" (when enabled) when the
door is open. The door jamb switch should be closed when the door is closed and open when the door is open.
1.5.4 Optional Remote Transducer Wiring
The figure below references the Setra remote sensors equipped with 4-20 mA output. The instruction booklets
supplied with the sensors cover both the
3-wire voltage output configuration and 2-wire current configuration. The figure below clarifies the 2-wire 420 mA connection between the Setra 264 or 267 and APM2 inputs. The same connection applies to IN2 (AI2).
If the APM2 output is configured for 4-20 mA on the AO, the users can use either 249 or 500 Ohm resistors
depending on whether they desire 1-5 or 2-10 Vdc.

shorted.
This relay can also drive a Remote Annunciator.
1.5.6 Optional Remote Annunciator Wiring
In the figure below, the Remote Annunciator connector is at left, and the APM2 connector is at right.
Figure 1-8. Remote Annunciator Wiring Diagram
•To connect +15 Vdc power, connect the +15 Vdc from the relay connector to +15 Vdc, A1 at the Remote
Annunciator. This supplies 15 V exc. to the Remote Annunciator for powering the circuit during normal
conditions.
•To connect power return, connect the COM of relay connector to Ground, A2 at the Remote Annunciator.
•On of the relay connector, connect a short jumper between the +15 and relay connector. This will connect
the internal 15V supply to the common of the internal alarm relay.
•Connect the NO on the relay output to the +15 Vdc Trigger, A3 terminal on the Remote Annunciator.
When an alarm occurs and after the programmed alarm delay times out, the internal relay will supply 15 V to
the Remote Annunciator circuit to actuate the audible buzzer and the red LED.
