MOUNTING THE UNIT
VAV NEW CONSTRUCTION INSTALLATION
The VAV must be mounted in a relatively clean environment, free from major airborne dust and contaminants
(moisture, oil, etc.). Keep the VAV away from high voltage equipment that might disrupt communications and away
from high vibration equipment. Do not mount the unit near any sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) or
flammable vapors.
Install the VAV controller on the VAV terminal by placing the opening of the actuator over the damper shaft extended
from the box as shown in Figure 4. Make sure that the terminal end of the enclosure is over a flat area of the box, or
a mounting bracket must be used.
