The Enlighted Hard Ceiling Mount (HCM) Carrier is a flexible mounting solution for the following sensors:
- HCM Carrier for Diffuser Fixture Mount of a Micro Sensor (SU-5E/KIT-SU-5E-D)
- HCM Carrier for Ceiling Mount of a Ruggedized Sensor (SU-5S-xxx) or Micro Sensor Ruggedized Low Bay (SU-5E-LR)
HCM Carrier for Diffuser Fixture Mount of a Micro Sensor, 8-pin/2-wire, (SU-5E/Kit-SU-5E-D)
To install the Microsensor with HCM:
- Drill a 7/8” diameter hole in the diffuser where the sensor is to be mounted.
- Insert the Hard Mount Carrier into the hole.
- Insert the 8-pin end of the sensor cable through the Hard Ceiling Mount Carrier and connect it to the SU-5E sensor.
- Push the entire assembly into the hole.
HCM Carrier for Ceiling Mount of a Ruggedized Sensor (SU-5S-HRW/LRW) or Micro Sensor Ruggedized Low Bay (SU-5E-LR)
Four mounting options are available:
- Option 1: Mounting the Sensor directly on Drywall/Sheetrock/Ceiling tile (with or without J-box backup)
- Option 2: Mounting Sensor directly into 1” EMT or Rigid Conduit
- Option 3: Mounting Sensor onto 3/4” EMT conduit stub
- Option 4: Mounting Sensor onto 3/4” rigid conduit stub
Option 1: Mounting the Sensor directly on Drywall/Sheetrock/Ceiling Tile (with or without J-box Backup)
To install the Ruggedized sensor with HCM in drywall or hard top ceiling,
- Drill a 1” diameter hole where the sensor is to mount
- Stretch the HCM carrier to insert it over the sensor nipple in “normal” orientation with the flange facing towards the sensor.
- Connect the sensor cable to the ceiling cable, using the RJ-45 coupler.
- Glide the coupler and excess wire into the drilled hole.
- Press the sensor as far as possible into the drilled hole.
Option 2: Mounting Sensor directly into 1” EMT or Rigid Conduit
To install the Ruggedized sensor with HCM into a 1" Electric Metallic Tube (EMT) or Rigid conduit,
-
Stretch the HCM carrier to insert it over the sensor nipple over the sensor nipple in “normal” orientation with the flange facing towards the sensor.
- Connect the sensor cable to the cable from the conduit, using the RJ-45 coupler.
- Glide the coupler and excess wire into the conduit.
Note: Ensure that the cable is completely drawn out and not compressed at the end of the conduit.
- Press the sensor as far as possible into the conduit.
Option 3: Mounting Sensor into 3/4” EMT Conduit Stub
To install the Ruggedized Sensor into a 3/4” EMT conduit stub please make sure that you have access to the fixture side of the stub.
- Stretch the HCM carrier to insert it over the sensor nipple over the sensor nipple in “normal” orientation with the flange facing towards the sensor.
- Attach a ¾” EMT coupler to the end of the EMT conduit stub.
- Glide the sensor cable through the coupler and EMT conduit stub into the conduit body, J-box, or a fixture at the other end of the stub.
- On the fixture side of the stub, connect the RJ-45 connector or RJ-45 coupler with the extension cable from the sensor to the CU.
- On the sensor side of the stub, glide the excess wire into the conduit.
Note: Ensure that the cable is completely drawn out and not compressed at the end of the conduit.
- Press the sensor as far as possible into the coupler.
- Tighten the screw on the coupler if it is accessible. Ensure that the screw is not overtightened.
Option 4: Mounting Sensor into 3/4” Rigid Conduit Stub
To install the Ruggedized Sensor into a 3/4” rigid conduit stub, you must have access to the fixture side of the stub.
- Stretch the HCM carrier to insert it over the sensor nipple in “normal” orientation with the flange facing towards the sensor.
- Attach a ¾” EMT to rigid combination coupler at the end of the rigid conduit stub.
- Glide the sensor cable through the coupler and the rigid conduit stub into the conduit body, J-box, or fixture at the other end of the stub.
- On the fixture side, connect the RJ-45 connector or RJ-45 coupler with the extension cable from the sensor to the CU.
- On the sensor side, glide the excess wire into the conduit.
Note: Ensure that the cable is completely drawn out and not compressed at the end of the conduit.
- Press the sensor as far as possible into the coupler.
- Tighten the screw on the coupler if it is accessible. Ensure that the screw is not overtightened.
