Description   Reviews   Files   Specs   Question & Answer  

Tjernlund Duct Airstat senses positive pressure in a forced air heating and/or cooling system. The single pole, single throw, snap-acting switch is activated by a diaphragm with a factory installed sampling tube inserted directly into the duct or plenum. The Duct Airstat can be used to initiate such auxiliary devices as: Duct Boosters, Electronic Air Cleaners, Electrical Duct Heaters, and Humidifiers. The electrical contacts of the switch are closed upon sensing positive air pressure generated by the blower.

LOCATION AND MOUNTING:
1. The duct Airstat must be mounted in a vertical position.
2. Drill a 11/32" hole in the duct or plenum to permit the insertion the pressure probe. If furnace has central air-conditioning, care must be taken so as not to drill into the cooling coil when mounting the Duct Airstat on the furnace plenum.
3. Insert the pressure probe into the drilled hole, position the Duct Airstat and mark the mounting holes. If necessary, bend the mounting feet with pliers to match the contour of the duct or plenum.
4. Remove control and drill or punch two 1/8" holes for mounting screws.
5. Using the two sheet metal screws furnished, fasten the Duct Airstat to the duct or plenum. Sealing gasket must be mounted on pressure probe to ensure minimal air leakage.
