Location Considerations
Consider the following mounting location guidelines:
• Avoid areas subject to the effects of excessive
vibration, electrical noise, direct sunlight, or radiant
heat.
• Keep electrical wiring as short as possible to
minimize temperature error.
Mounting the Temperature Sensor
See Figure 2 and mount the temperature sensor:
Note: Add thermal compound (F-1000-182, or
equivalent) before inserting the probe if the well does
not include thermal compound. Johnson Controls®
TE-6300W thermowells contain thermal compound.
For proper sensor function, mount the well so that any
condensation that forms drains out of the probe.
1. If the thermowell is:
• Direct Mount (TE-63xAM-2), loosen the set
screw
• Threaded (TE-63x2M), screw the well adaptor
into the thermowell and loosen the well adaptor
set screw
2. Insert the sensor probe into the thermowell until it
touches the bottom.
3. Pull back the probe approximately 1/8 in. (3 mm)
and then tighten the set screw.
4. Wire the sensor to the controller.
5. Reposition the cover and tighten the cover screws..
IMPORTANT: The TE-6300M Series Well Insertion
Temperature Sensors are intended to provide an
input to equipment under normal operating
conditions. Where failure or malfunction of the
sensor could lead to personal injury or property
damage to the controlled equipment or other
property, additional precautions must be designed
into the control system. Incorporate and maintain
other devices such as supervisory or alarm systems
or safety or limit controls intended to warn of, or
protect against, failure or malfunction of the sensor.
IMPORTANT:
Do not install the TE-6300M Series
Well Insertion Temperature Sensor in ambient
temperatures beyond the specified -50 to 220°F
(-46 to 104°C) temperature range. Installing the
temperature sensor in ambient temperatures beyond
this range may damage the unit and void the warranty.

CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage.
Do not apply power to the system before
checking all wiring connections. Short
circuited or improperly connected wires
may result in permanent damage to the
equipment.
