WARNINGS
Use of equipment, components and accessories other than those specified by IQAir may impair safety provided
by the equipment. Safety of any system incorporating the equipment is the responsibility of the installer of the
system.
PoE power injector or USB adapter are not to be positioned so that it is difficult to unplug them.
When using in covered outdoor areas, the PoE power injector or USB adapter is to be installed in a weatherproof
enclosure or indoor with the cable routed through a wall or window feedthrough.
CAUTION
The IQAir AirVisual Outdoor enclosure is designed to be water resistant to rain or spray. It is not designed to be
waterproof when immersed. Setting it in a pool of water will result in flooding the inner compartment with water.
This will severely damage your IQAir AirVisual Outdoor. DO NOT install the IQAir AirVisual Outdoor less than 1
meters or 3 feet from the ground. Setting the bottom of IQAir AirVisual Outdoor too close to a surface will result
in water splashing back into the inlet and may result in damage to the device.
DO NOT mount the IQAir AirVisual Outdoor upside down. To increase sampling efficiency, the PM sensor is
covered by a porous screen but is not splash- or waterproof. The IQAir AirVisual Outdoor has ingress protection
from top and front side for splash water. Direct injection of water into the device is likely to damage it.
PoE power injector or USB adapter are not intended for outdoor use.
