Outdoor Temperature Sensor Installation Guidelines
Avoid areas with temperature fluctuations by direct sunlight,
●
and where the temperature may not be representative of true
outdoor temperature.
Best location to install the temperature sensor is on a North or
●
Northeast side of a structure under eaves where the sensor is
shielded from direct sunlight.
Avoid placing sensor in close proximity of heat sources that may
●
affect correct temperature sensing. (fans, exhausts, vents, lights)
Avoid installing the sensor in areas where the sensor is subjected
●
to excessive moisture.
Use 18 gauge wiring (thermostat wiring) with no splices. (except
●
at the unit harness connection with blue leader wire.)
Caution should be taken to avoid potential electromagnetic
●
interference (EMI) by routing separately from potential sources
such as line voltage wiring. When necessary, shielded cable may
be used.
Make sure wiring connections are secure before closing the cap.
●
The sensor is a water resistant device.
●
Any damage to the device may require the replacement of the
●
entire component.
