Guidelines and Instrument Layout

Positioning

The ADR-1500 real-time aerosol monitor can be operated in a vertical
(upright) position and preferred for outdoor fixed location operation as
well as for most indoor applications.
The ADR-1500 can be pole mounted (Figure 2–1) or wall (or post)
mounted using the four wall mounting tabs that protrude above and below
the enclosure. These tabs have mounting holes with a diameter of 5/16 (7.9
mm). If required, these mounting tabs can be removed. For details, see
Figure 2–2 and Figure 2–3. For more information on the optional 2-inch,
3-inch, and 4-inch pole mounting kits, see chapter 8 "Optional
Accessories".
When mounting the ADR-1500 care should be taken to ensure that the
front door of the unit can be opened without hindrance, and that free
access is provided to the connectors and feed-throughs on the right face of
the enclosure.
It is important to ensure free access of the air to be monitored to the
sampling inlet. For ambient air monitoring, the omni-directional inlet
provided with the ADR-1500 should always be used, and this inlet should
not be obstructed by nearby objects, in order to ensure representative
sampling.
Under typical operating conditions, the door of the ADR-1500 enclosure
should be closed. Holes are provided on the enclosure to add a padlock to
prevent unauthorized access to the interior of the unit. The door should be
opened only to access the control keys of the ADR-1500, to replace either
of the filters, or for other maintenance.
WARNING Personal injury could occur when mounting the instrument.
Assistance may be required. ▲
Equipment Damage Damage could occur if not installed in a vertical,
upright, position. ▲
