5. Installation Guide for ADPS-05-2-N-C in Duct Systems

Preparation
• Select a location near the duct, at the inlet/outlet of filters or fans
• Shut down the system before installation to ensure safety

Mechanical Mounting
• Mount the switch on a wall or support frame
• Use Ø6 mm air tubing to connect the High and Low ports
• Avoid locations with strong vibrations or water splashes

Electrical Connection
• Connect signal wires to the SPDT terminals (C – NO – NC) based on your control logic
• Can be connected to relays, indicator lights, buzzers, PLCs, BMS, etc.

Testing and Operation
• Turn on the system, apply test pressure, and check for switching response
• Adjust the setpoint knob to match the required operating pressure
