Installation instruction
Uniguard 8
Mounting and positioning
The Uniguard should be installed according to the
drawing below. The Uniguard can be installed on any
side of the duct.
We recommend that the Uniguard is mounted at an
equal distance from sources of interferance, and similar
to the siting of flow monitors.
A distance of 3 times the duct hydraulic diameter should
be left before a source of interferance, and 5 times the
hydraulic diameter after.
Note the foot's shape of an arrow, which shall be installed towards the air flow direction.

locations or in areas subject to
outside temperatures (roof,
