SIEMENS 536-811 Bracket Mounted Duct Temperature Sensor
Product Information
The Duct Temperature Sensor is a bracket-mounted single-point sensor assembly designed to provide input to an equipment controller. It can be mounted on the outside of a square or round duct and is made of thin steel that can be easily bent to conform to the duct’s contour. The product comes with a gasket, two No. 8 self-tapping screws, and two wire connectors. It is available in two models: 536-811 (100K ohm Thermistor) and QAM2030.010-BR (10Kohm Type II Thermistor).
Product Usage Instructions
- Review Electrical Code (NEC) and local regulations before installation.
- Drill a 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) diameter hole on the side of the duct where the sensor will be mounted. If the self-tapping feature of the screws provided cannot be used, use Figure 3 as a template and drill one 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) center hole and two 1/8-inch (3 mm) diameter holes where the sensor should be located.
- Insert the sensor into the 3/8-inch hole in the duct.
- Secure the sensor assembly to the duct with the two No. 8 self-tapping screws provided.
- Make wiring connections and fasten the wires to the mounting plate with cable ties or other suitable means to relieve any strain.
- For shield termination requirements, refer to the appropriate hardware manual.
