4.1 MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Securely fasten the Gas Monitor 1ACO unit on a solid, non-vibrating surface or structure. Install
the unit where it is not exposed to rain or water spray. Install in an area where the local
concentration of gas is unaffected by the presence of ventilation systems and away from
sources of interference gases. Mount the monitor where the unit can be observed periodically.
For most applications the monitor should be mounted 1.2 -1.8 m (4-6 ft) from the floor. See
Figure 3 for mounting hole locations.
CAUTION: All cable entry MUST BE through the BOTTOM of the monitor enclosure only.
Other entry locations will allow foreign materials to enter the enclosure, causing possible
damage to the internal components.
