2.1 Sensor Placement/Mounting
Sensor location should be reviewed by facility engineering and safety personnel. Area leak sources and
perimeter mounting are typically used to determine number and location of sensors. The sensors are generally
located 2 - 4 feet above grade.
Optimum performance of ambient air/gas sensor devices is directly related to proper location and installation
practices. Refer Figure 7 for recommended electrical installation method
