Duct Mounting with Capillary Compression
Fitting
In some duct-mount application, it is desirable to use a
compression fitting to reduce air leakage at the sensing
element location. For these applications, first mount a waste
nut on the duct to ensure secure mounting. See Fig. 12. See
Table 6 for part numbers.
NOTE: Do not use this mounting method for liquid
applications.

and compression fitting.
Averaging Element Holders
The averaging element must be supported so it is distributed
evenly across the entire height and width of the duct. It can be
fastened to perforated strap iron (see Fig. 13) or mounted with
314439 Mounting Clips (see Fig. 14). This type of mounting
requires threading the element through a grommet inserted in
a hole in the duct wall.
For ducts with limited access, the 7640HX Averaging Element
Mounting Kit allows mounting the element through a single
hole in the side of the duct. This kit requires a length of 1/2 in.
