the monitored spaces. Install the remote pressure sensor module in the wall facing the monitored space such as an isolation room.
a positive pressure value indicates that the monitored space is positive with respect to the reference space. Choose a location that is
away from any moving air source such as ceiling-mounted air registers. This can cause unstable sensor behavior. See Figure 8 for more
information.
Before you begin, determine the sensor location and the number of cables that you need. To mount the remote pressure sensor, make
sure you have the following tools:
•
• a #2 Phillips head screwdriver
• a drywall saw or an oscillating tool with a drywall saw blade
To mount the remote pressure sensor, complete the following steps:
1.
sensor module included with the unit. The length of the cable should not exceed 1,000 ft.
2. Remove each sensor’s louvered cover plate and stainless steel backplate from the orange wall bracket.
3. Cut an opening in the wall of the monitored space for the orange low voltage mounting bracket and for the remote pressure sensor
4. Use the rotating clamps to secure the bracket to the wall safely.

11. Screw the louvered cover plate to the front.
12. Apply thin silicone caulking around
the tube, between the stainless steel plate and the wall to seal against penetration.
13. Press the mounting plate into place. Allow the excess tube length to go into the wall space. Secure the mounting plate with the
screws and anchors.
