K Series Mounting

1. K Series products may be used indoors or outdoors. They must be in-

stalled using the proper SpectrAlert Advance weatherproof back box. Do
not attempt to use boxes other than those specified for use with the
product.

2. The plastic weatherproof back box is equipped with removable side

flanges for mounting. The back box may be secured directly to the wall
or ceiling using the flanges (plastic and metal back boxes) or by using
the knockout plugs(plastic back boxes). Knockout plugs are provided to
mount directly to the wall or ceiling or to a 1900 weatherproof electrical
box, see Figure 12.

provided with the box for this purpose.

4. It is the responsibility of the installer to make sure that all openings and

connections are sealed properly. Outdoor installations that are protected
from direct exposure to rain are still subject to condensation or leakage
through hidden areas, such as a soffit.

5. Water may pool on the back box due to condensation or direct exposure

to rain or snow. Use watertight fittings for all wiring connections, includ-
ing the knockout plugs on the back of the box. When using the plastic
plugs to fill unused threaded holes, make sure the O-rings supplied are
properly positioned on the plug. The plugs must be sealed with PTFE
thread seal tape.

6. Attach the mounting plate to the weatherproof back box using the four

non-painted screws.

7. Follow steps 2-5 of the indoor mounting instructions to wire and attach

the product. The product must be mounted to the weather proof back
box using the painted screws (wall product has 4 screws, ceiling product
has 3 screws)
