Select a location that represents well the area of interest. Interior walls and columns are typically suitable locations. The installation height should be 1.2 ... 1.8 m (4 ... 6 ft).

Figure 1. Examples of good installation locations
Seal the cable opening when bringing a cable through the wall. The hole will supply air from outside the room into the transmitter and affect the measurement readings. For example, fresh concrete binds CO2 and may cause low readings, especially in new buildings.
Avoid installing in the following locations:
  • Near doors or windows.
  • Near heat and moisture sources.
  • In direct sunlight.
  • In locations that are blocked by furniture.
  • Close to the discharge of supply air ducts.
  • On the floor or the ceiling.
  • On points that experience excessive vibration.
