INSTALLATION
The installation of the AMC-1BXX Gas Monitor is very important as the operational quality is a
direct result of the quality of the installation. The following sections provide guidelines for
installation; location and mounting, wiring, and cable selection.
4.1 MONITOR MOUNTING
Care should be taken to securely fasten the monitor unit on a solid, non-vibrating surface or
structure at 5
– 6 ft (1.5 - 1.8 m) from the floor. Install the unit in an area where the local
concentration of gas is unaffected by the presence of ventilation systems and away from sources
of interference gases. Mount the monitor where the unit can be observed periodically. See Figure
4-1 for mounting hole locations.
CAUTION: All cable entry MUST BE through the BOTTOM of the monitor enclosure only. Other
entry locations will allow foreign materials to enter the enclosure, causing possible damage to the
internal components.
Warning:
The monitor should not be placed near cleaning products/solvents, particularly ones
that contain alcohol. This can permanently damage sensor elements or cause negative
output values.
Conduit entry from the top or back of the housing is Not Recommended. Any water
damage related to conduit entry from the top or back will not be covered under
warranty.
Qualified personnel should perform the installation according to applicable electrical
codes, regulations and safety standards. Ensure correct cabling practices are
implemented.
