NOTE: The inlet sampling tube must be ordered sepa- rately. It must be the correct length for the width of the duct where it will be installed. See Table 1 to determine the inlet tube required for different duct widths. Smoke detector heads (1551, ionization; 2551, photoelectronic) must be ordered separately.

Step 9. | Perform the final system check (Testing) | 8 |
Step 1. Verify Duct Air Flow Direction and Velocity The DH500 is designed to be used in air handling systems having air velocities of 500 to 4000 feet per minute. Be sure to check engineering specifications to ensure that the air velocity in the duct falls within these parameters. If neces- sary, an Alnor Model
Step 2. Drill the Mounting Holes
Remove the paper backing from the top and bottom of the template. Affix the template to the air duct at the desired mounting location. Make sure the template lies flat and smooth on the air duct. Center punch hole targets and remove the template. Drill the holes as indicated on the template. Slide the two speed nuts over the two small holes (Hole A) next to the sampling tube bushing holes (Hole B) previously drilled in the duct. (See Figure 2.)
Step 3. Mount Duct Housing
Remove the duct housing cover. Slide the foam gaskets over the tube bushings as shown in Figure 2B. Make sure the two small holes in the gaskets line up with the two base mounting holes. Put one
CAUTION
Do not overtighten the screws.
