  • Page 25: Sensor Modules - General

    Sentry 5000-32-IT Controller Sensor Modules – General Avoid installing sensor modules where they will be unnecessarily exposed to wind, dust, water (esp. direct hose down), shock, or vibration. Observe temperature range limitations. Sensors may be adversely affected by prolonged exposure to certain materials. Loss of sensitivity, or corrosion, may be gradual if such materials are present in low concentrations.
  • Page 26: Installation

    Sentry 5000-32-IT Controller INSTALLATION Site Planning Prior to installation of the controller a site plan should be prepared to indicate the location of all system components including the controller, sensor modules and annunciators. The site plan must also provide cable, conduit or wire tray locations and routing. The scope of this manual covers installation and wiring of the controller.
