Installation
Air Duct Mounting
If the duct hygrostat is used for control, mount in the
exhaust air duct after the room to be controlled.
If the duct hygrostat is used for monitoring the
maximum or minimum humidity level, mount in the
supply air duct.
Mounting Positions
The immersion sensor stem must be mounted either
horizontally or vertically with the stem pointing
downward. Do not mount with the stem pointing
upward. (See Figure 1.)
SEN0508R1
Figure 1. Acceptable Mounting Positions.
Ensure that the air to be measured is sufficiently
mixed at the point of measurement for accurate
humidity measurements.
The mounting orientation is dependent on the air
velocity in the ductwork: at <5 m/s, the holes in the
stem must face the airflow; at >5 m/s, they must be
perpendicular to the direction of airflow. (See
Figure 2.)

Figure 2. Mounting Orientations.
Minimum Immersion Length
NOTE: When mounting the hygrostat in air ducts,
the minimum immersion length of the stem
is 5.12 inches (130 mm).
The mounting flange supplied with the unit allows
the immersion length to be adjusted between
5.12 inches (130 mm) and 6.14 inches (156 mm).

Calibration
Wall Mounting
The hygrostat should be mounted: If humidity is known and field calibration is needed,
then the device may be set to known humidity. Use
a 7 mm wrench to adjust until an audible click is
heard. This will calibrate the unit.
• on an inner wall approximately 4.9 feet
(1.5 m) above the floor, and at least 1.6 feet
(0.5 m) from the closest adjoining wall.
• where there is a natural circulation of room
air (do not mount near drafts, in corners,
behind curtains, too close to doors and
windows, or on an outer wall).
• away from sources of heat and refrigeration
(radiators, computers, televisions, concealed
heating pipes, hot or cold water pipes).
• where it is not exposed to direct sunlight.
NOTE: You must use the mounting flange supplied
with the hygrostat for wall mounting.
Wiring
1. Using a flat-blade screw driver, loosen the
mounting screw and remove the cover to
expose the wiring terminals.
Figure 5. Humidity Calibration.
Replace the cover and tighten the mounting screw
with a flat-blade screwdriver.
2. Wire the device as required. See Figure 4. The installation is now complete.
