2. Installation

The KSGD is available with faceplates in
white plastic and stainless steel or can be
custom finished to suit colour schemes.
Irrespective of the faceplate the KSGD will
fit into a standard single gang electrical
back box.
The minimum depth of the back box is
dependent upon the faceplate however all
designs will fit into a box 45mm deep
enclosure which can be flush mounted into
the wall.
Fig-2 shows how the KSGD is to be
mounted;

2.1 Locating the sensor

The main considerations when deciding where to locate the KSGD are:-
1. Low level
As HFC refrigerants are heavier than air, the KSGD should be mounted as close as practical to
floor level (150mm ~ 250mm above floor level), preferably directly below the air conditioning
unit.
2. Accessible for maintenance
The KSGD should be mounted in a
position where it can be easily accessed
for maintenance and repairs.
3. Minimize possibility of damage
Mount the sensor in a position that
minimizes the risk of mechanical
damage to the unit.
4. Minimize false alarms
Semi-conductor
sensors
poisoned
exposure may take considerable time to
recover. Solvent paints and silicon
mastic are typical contaminants and
exposure from these substances must be
avoided.
5. Ensure leaks can be detected
Do not mount the sensor next to doors
or windows, where fresh air may
influence readings.
