General Mounting Considerations:
• Must be easily accessible for calibration and maintenance.
• Mount the sensor close to the potential leak source for fastest
possible leak detection.
• If personnel protection is the primary application, mount in the
“breathing zone” (1–1.5 m from the ground, within the range of a
person’s respiration area).
• Protect sensor from water, excessive humidity, and wash-down.
• Take air movement and ventilation patterns into account.
• To prevent electrical interference, keep sensor and wire runs
away from mercury vapor lights, variable speed drives, and radio
repeaters.
• Protect sensor from physical damage (fork lifts, etc.).
• Do not mount the sensor over a door in a refrigerated area.
• For highly critical locations, more than one sensor should be
installed in each room.
Very Important:
• Never mount sensor flat on a ceiling.
• Never mount sensor on a vibrating surface.
