AFA4000/1 Airflow Monitor / p.40
5. Installation: Airflow Monitor
This section outlines the installation of the various components of the airflow monitor
system. The size and format of individual fume cupboards varies considerably, so specific
instructions are not possible, however the principles outlined are valid for all cases.
5.1 Location
The AFA4000/1 monitor can be mounted on either side of the fume cupboard. However,
when deciding on the location for the airflow monitor and sensor, consider the cable
lengths required:
• The 5 metre low-voltage cable must reach from the terminals on the back of the
AFA4000/1 airflow monitor to the connections on top of the fume cupboard.
• The standard 2 metre ‘telephone style’ sensor cable must reach from the back of the
AFA4000/1 airflow monitor to the airflow sensor. When possible ensure that the
airflow sensor is mounted on the same side of the fume cupboard as the AFA4000/1.
Note: Longer sensor cables are available on request.
