User and Service Manual

Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual

Please read and save these instructions for future reference. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, 
operate or maintain the product described. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure 
to comply with these instructions will result in voiding of the product warranty and may result in personal injury 
and/or property damage.

Sure-Aire™ Electronics Features:

•  LCD display with user-friendly touch panel interface
•  NEMA-4 / IP56  enclosure  rating
•  Factory calibrated
•  Programmable elevation
•  English or metric readings
•  24 VAC / DC or 100-240 VAC 50 / 60 Hz input voltage
•  Part numbers and pressure ranges: 

 386719  –  0-4.15 in. wg 
386720 – 0-8.30 in. wg 
386721 – 0-22.14 in. wg 
386722 – 0-41.52 in. wg 
386723 – 0-83.14 in. wg 
386724 – 0-138.40 in. wg

•  Isolated output, linear to differential pressure or 

volume 
 4-20 mA 
2-10 VDC

•  Communication protocols 

 BACnet  MSTP 
Modbus

•  Temperature compensation for air density

Tools Required

•  Four (4) #8-32 screws
•  1/4-inch nylon tubing (length dependent on 

distance between fan and Sure-Aire electronics, 
maximum 75 feet 

(23 m)

 each line)

•  Sensor wiring for temperature sensor (if 

temperature sensor is being used)

Pressure ranges reflect differential pressures between 
the fan inlet and inlet cone, not system static 
pressure.

Flow Accuracy

 

– /- 3.0% of actual flow

Transducer in Electronics

•    Ac/- 0.5% of full scale at 77ºF (

25ºC

)

•    Pressure limit: 70 psi (1938 in. wg)
•    Thermal effects: 0.015%/°F (

0.027%/°C

) from -13° 

thru 185°F ( 

25° thru 85°C

)

Label Information

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alterations, 
service or maintenance may cause injury and / or 
property damage, as well as possibly void the
