Temperature sensors: Use Vector Controls NTC sensors to achieve maximum accuracy: SDB-Tn10-20 (duct), SRA-Tn10
(room), SDB-Tn10-20 + AMI-S10 as immersion sensor.
Actuators: Choose modulating actuators with an input signal type of 0-10 V DC or 4-20 mA (Min. and max. signal limitations
may be set with parameters. 3-point point actuators with constant running time are recommended.
Binary auxiliary devices (e.g. pumps, fans, on/off valves, humidifiers, etc): Do not directly connect devices that exceed
specified limits in technical specifications – observe startup current on inductive loads.

Supplying voltages above AC 24 V to low voltage connections may damage or destroy the controller or any other connected devices. Additionally, connections to voltages exceeding 42 V endanger personnel safety. Observe limits mentioned in the technical specifications. Local regulations must be observed!
