General installation guidelines
GE-V1 or GE-V2 Module
-
It is recommended to install the module unit in a hallway to limit the GE-VX
exposure to noxious gases.
-
In order to avoid condensation problems inside the module, it is recommended to
install the GE-VX
on an inside wall. If it is not possible, use spacers to have an air
gap between the wall and the GE-VX.
-
It is required to install the GE-VX right side up with the cable entry holes facing
down.
-
The enclosure is watertight, but do not spray water or submerge the GE-VX in water.
Cover it carefully with plastic when cleaning the room.
-
The GE-VX should be installed in easy-access location but away from damaging
elements (heat, cold, water, direct sunlight, …).
-
Do not drill the face, the side, the top or the underside of the control.
-
Do not install the GE-VX module near high-voltage equipment, power supply or
transformer.
