65-2322RK Oxygen Transmitter • 9

Junction Box

Use the junction box to install the transmitter at a mounting site that is remote from the 
controller. The junction box protects the amplifier and wiring connections made to the 
amplifier. Use the top 3/4 NPT conduit hub to connect wiring from the amplifier to the 
controller. Use the cover on the front of the junction box to access the interior of the junction 
box. The detector and amplifier are factory installed in the junction box. Three spacers 
installed on the back of the junction box control the distance of the junction box from a 
mounting surface and ensure that there is enough room to install a calibration cup on the 
detector during calibration.

Installation

This section describes procedures to mount the oxygen transmitter in the monitoring 
environment and wire the transmitter to a controller.

Mounting the Oxygen Transmitter

1. Select a mounting site that is representative of the monitoring environment. Consider the 

following when you select the mounting site.

Select a site where the transmitter is not likely to be bumped or disturbed. Make sure 
there is sufficient room to perform start-up, maintenance, and calibration procedures.

Select a site that is at normal breathing level.
