Freedom™ 5000 Installation
Location Considerations
Prior t
o installing the Series 5000 system, consideration should be given to the following
items when choosing its location.
1. Orien
tation - Always mount the sensor pointing downward. Contact Scott Safety for
orientations other than vertical pointing downward.
2. Gas Density - For gases heavier than air, it is recommended that the sensor be
installed approximately 18” from floor level. In these applications care should be taken
to protect the sensors from physical damage. For gases that are lighter than air, sensors
should be installed at a high level or close to the potential leak source.
3. Potent
ial Gas Sources - The location and nature of potential vapor/gas sources
(e.g., pressure, amount, source, temperature, and distance) need to be assessed.
Typically it is advisable to mount a sensor close to the source of the gas leak.
4. Amb
ient Temperature - Insure that the system is located within an area that
complies with the specified operating temperature range of the sensor & transmitter.
