Installation Instructions and Positioning

The KRM-X must be positioned in accordance with the applicable 
local regulations on ventilation systems. Reliable smoke detection 
must be ensured. The air collecting tube may be cut to a length of 
160 mm, depending on the cross-section of the ventilation duct. 
It must not be cut to less than this minimum length of 160 mm. 
Using the KS-X mounting bracket, this makes it possible to mon-
itor ducts up to <100 mm ø. There is no maximum width, height 
or diameter for air ventilation ducts monitored with the 600 mm 
long standard air collecting tube under the VdS approval/  
DIBt certification. The indicated airflow direction must be 
observed when installing the tube adapter. The air collecting 

tube may be mounted laterally, below or above the air duct – the 
location makes no difference.
In the ideal case, as far as is structurally possible, install the KRM-X 
in a location where flow meters etc. are normally installed, so that 
there is a laminar airflow along the measuring tube. We recom-
mend mounting and installing the KRM-X at the same distance 
from heating, cooling and humidity devices and in a similar way 
as flow sensors. The distance of the KRM-X to fittings, valves,
filters, etc. should be 3 times the diagonal of the channel 
cross-section against the flow direction and 5 times with the flow 
direction, if this is structurally possible. The KRM-X, including the

Where there are large temperature differences, 
outdoors for example, or in places that are 
dependent on outside temperature (roof, attic), 
the air duct smoke detector needs to be insulated. 
Oppermann Regelgeräte provides a special 
splash-proof housing (WDG-X) for this purpose.
