3. Route the power and signal cable through the
cable gland or the conduit adaptor to the screw
terminals, and connect the wires.
4. Disconnect the terminal block by pulling it away
from the component board.
5. Adjust the cable length between the cable gland
and the terminal block. Make sure the cover closes
without leaving a loop within the transmitter.
6. Tighten the cable gland or conduit adaptor.
Pole Mounting
To mount the Hx-68P3 Series Outside Humidity and
Temperature Transmitter to a pole:
1. Attach the clamp to the pole with the set screw.
2. Align the transmitter mounting bracket with the
holes on the clamp, and insert the screws through
the holes of the transmitter mounting bracket and
into the clamp.
3. Tighten the screws securing the transmitter
assembly onto the pole.
4. Plug in the screw terminal block (terminal screws
facing the transmitter cover), close the cover, and
tighten the cover screws. See Figure 5 for plugging
in the terminal block and attaching the cover.
5. Secure the cable to the pole using cable ties.
Incorporate a drip loop below the cable gland to
prevent water from running into the transmitter
along the cable.
Wall Mounting
To mount the Hx-68P3 Series Outside Humidity and
Temperature Transmitter to a wall:
1. Drill two holes for the wall plugs 3-15/16 in.
(100 mm) apart.
2. Insert the anchors into the holes.
3. Align the transmitter up to the holes, and insert the
screws through the holes and into the anchors.
4. Tighten the screws securing the transmitter onto
the wall.
5. Plug in the screw terminal block (terminal screws
facing the transmitter cover), close the cover, and
tighten the cover screws. See Figure 5 for plugging
in the terminal block and attaching the cover.
IMPORTANT:
Do not attach the cover to the
transmitter until the transmitter has been mounted
on the pole or wall.
IMPORTANT:
We recommend a pole diameter of
2-11/32 to 3-3/32 in. (25 to 60 mm) if you use the
supplied clamp and screws.
