SECTION 2
HOUSING INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 HEM10-BK BLOWER KIT INSTALLATION (without heater)
This section contains comprehensive instructions for installing
the blower kit into the HEM10, HEM10-01, HEM12 or HEM12-01
camera housing. The HEM10-BK is compatible in both the
HEM10 and HEM12 series. If you are also installing the heater,
please skip to page 5 for comprehensive instructions. The blower
kit is available in a preassembled package with a housing, heater
kit, and sunshield under model HEM10-03 or HEM12-03.
1. If applicable, remove the sunshield by sliding it forward on
the main housing unit.
2. Remove the two Phillips panhead screws located midway up
the rear of the housing unit. Retain the screws and their
black rubber gaskets, which were left in the holes on the rear
of the housing. (See Figure 1)
3. By sliding the housing shell away from the rear portion of the
unit, separate the housing into two sections. Be careful not to
disconnect the end of the ground cable that is attached to the
housing shell. (See Figure 1)
4. Locate the gold, flathead 1/4” x 20 UNC screw and nylon
washer taped to the rear of the housing and set them aside
for later use. (See Figure 1)
5. Remove the standard silver camera mounting plate by
unscrewing the flathead Phillips screw located at the rear.
Retain the screw. (See Figure 1)
FIGURE 1

3
6. Remove the rear of the housing from the base by unscrewing
the two Phillips panhead screws. (See Figure 1)
7. Use these screws to replace the rear with the blower unit,
being careful not to damage the wiring to the attached circuit
board. (See Figure 2)
8. Reattach the standard silver camera mounting plate to the
shelf extending from the rear of the housing. Align the hole
and secure using the Phillips panhead screw mentioned in
step 5. (See Figure 2)
9. Next, mount the blower circuit board on the camera mounting
plate. To do this, first place the two plastic spacers on the
two holes near the rear of the plate. Set the blower circuit
board on top of the spacers, aligning the holes and keeping
the wiring on the same side. Insert the small Phillips panhead
screws and secure the assembly. (See Figure 2)
10. Connect the
external power
supply (not
included) to the
circuit board. The
recommended
power supply is 24
Vac, 50 VA. (See
Figure 3)
11. To mount your camera, consult the section Camera
Mounting for HEM Series Housings on page 8. Begin with
step 5. Then see UL-WBM & UL-WB+BJ Wall Bracket
Mounting on page 10.

2.2 HEM10-HK/HEM12-HK HEATER KIT INSTALLATION (without
blower)
This section contains instructions for installing the heater kit for
the HEM10, HEM10-01, HEM12 and HEM12-01 camera
housings. If you are also installing the blower unit, please skip to
page 5 for comprehensive instructions.
While this heater kit is sold as an add-on component for the
HEM10, HEM10-01, HEM12 and HEM12-01, it is also available in
a preassembled package. The HEM10-02 and HEM12-02 are
10- and 12-inch camera housings respectively with an installed
sunshield and heater. The HEM10-03 and HEM12-03 add a
blower kit to this package.
1. If applicable, remove the sunshield by sliding it forward on
the main housing unit.
2. Loosen the two Phillips panhead screws located midway up
the rear of the housing unit until they release the body of the
housing. Leave the screws intact in the rear portion of the
housing. (See Figure 4)
3. By sliding the housing shell away from the rear portion of the
unit, separate the housing into two sections. (See Figure 4)
4. Locate the gold, flathead 1/4” x 20 UNC screw and nylon
washer taped to the rear of the housing and set them aside
for later use.
5. Remove the standard silver mounting plate by unscrewing
the flathead Phillips screw located at the rear. Next untape
the gold, flathead 1/4” screw and plastic washer from the
optional mounting plate with built-in heater, and install this
unit in place of the standard mounting plate. Make sure that
the heater plate is secured to the shelf that extends from the
rear of the housing unit. (See Figures 4 & 5)
FIGURE 4

6. Connect the external
power supply (not
included) to the circuit
board. The
recommended power
supply is 24 Vac, 50 VA.
(See Figure 6)

8. Attach the mounting plate with heater unit to the shelf
extending from the rear of the housing. Align the hole and
secure using the Phillips panhead screw mentioned in step 5.
(See Figure 8)
9. Using a small screwdriver, disconnect the wiring to the N and
L1 ports on the heater circuit board. (See Figure 8)
10. Next, replace the heater circuit board with the circuit board
that is wired to the blower. To do this, locate the two Phillips
panhead screws on the heater circuit board. Unscrew them
and remove the board from the mounting plate. With the two
plastic spacers already over the small holes on the mounting
plate, set the blower circuit board on top of the spacers,
keeping the wiring on the same side. Align the holes in the
board with the spacers and insert the small Phillips panhead
screws. Secure the assembly. (See Figure 8)
11. Connect the heater
wiring harness to the
blower circuit board
as shown. Then
connect the external
power supply (not

2.4 CAMERA MOUNTING FOR HEM SERIES HOUSINGS
This section contains comprehensive instructions for installing a
camera into any of the HEM series housings. If you are installing
optional equipment, such as a heater/blower kit, please consult
the previous section in this manual that is appropriate and refer
to this section when instructed to do so.

unit, separate the housing into two sections. Be careful not to
disconnect the end of the ground cable that is attached to the
housing shell. (See Figure 10)
4. Locate the gold, flathead 1/4” x 20 UNC screw and nylon
washer taped to the rear of the housing and set them aside
for later use.
5. To install your camera on the mounting plate with heater,
use the 1/4” flathead screw and plastic washer. Carefully
rotate the mounting plate for ease of installation. (See Figure
11)
6. Insert the cable through the compression glands, and make
all of the necessary electrical connections as described in
the instructions that accompanied the camera. Be sure that
the compression glands are firmly fixed. (See Figure 11)
FIGURE 10

7. After returning the plate to its original aligned position, begin
to reassemble the housing unit. Slide the body of the
housing completely across the base, being careful not to
disrupt any electrical connections. Secure the assembly by
tightening the two Phillips panhead screws through the rear
of the housing into the housing body. If you installed a
blower unit into the assembly, remember to slide the small
black rubber gaskets over the tips of the screws. (See Figure
12)
8. If applicable, reinstall the sunshield by sliding it across the
top of the housing unit.
2.5 HEM10-SS/ HEM12-SS SUNSHIELD INSTALLATION
This section contains instructions for installing the sunshield for
the HEM series housing. While this is sold as an add-on
component for the HEM10 and HEM12, it is also available in a
preassembled package. The HEM10-01 and HEM12-01 are 10-
and 12-inch camera housings, respectively, and include a
sunshield.
1. After the camera has
been installed and the
housing has been
reassembled (See
Camera Mounting for
HEM Series Housings
on page 8), install the
sunshield by sliding it across the top of the housing unit,
beginning at the front. (See Figure 13)
2. To mount the completed assembly, consult the next section,

2.6 UL-WBM & UL-WB+BJ WALL BRACKET MOUNTING
This section contains information for mounting the recommended
UL-WBM wall bracket, which is sold separately from HEM series
camera housings (The UL-WB+BJ is also compatible). Be sure
that the camera and the optional components have been
installed into the housing properly before proceeding to mount
the assembly.
1. Use fasteners of appropriate size and type to attach the
bracket to the wall surface. Be sure to position the housing
in a way that will allow for viewing of the selected area.
2. Locate two nuts that
freely slide along
the channel.
Position the nuts
approximately 2-
3/8” from one
another. (See
Figure 14)
3. Place the housing
onto the mount,
aligning the holes.
Insert the two
provided bolts through the mount and into the nuts. Secure
the assembly. (See Figure 14)
4. Adjust the movable arm of the wall bracket to attain the
desired position. Once it is in place, tighten the bolt located at
the pivot point of the movable arm. (See Figure 14)
