3.7 Remote Sensors
Remote sensors are optional. Although existing unit mounted sensors can be removed for remote
mounting, the remote sensor option provides a more convenient means of field installation. This is
because the sensors are already connected to a predetermined length of cable and come mounted in a
remote sensor enclosure. The temperature and humidity sensors require a total of five wires, these
should be a twisted, shielded cable.
3.8 Condensate Pumps
Condensate pumps which ship loose normally require a separate source of 110 volt power. Always
check the pump power requirements before connecting power. Condensate pumps are available in
other voltages.
Condensate pumps may also come unit mounted and powered. While no outside power source is
required, field piping is still a requirement.
Condensate pumps are wired to display a “High Condensate Water Level” alarm. The wiring for this
must be done in the field on pumps that ship loose. Factory mounted pumps come pre-wired.
3.9 Condensate Probe
A condensate probe for sensing underfloor water is included with this unit. This comes in a plastic
bag, with about 15 feet of coiled-up wire. The probe is a flat plate that is typically placed below the unit
in a location where water is likely to accumulate.
Place the probe flat on the floor on top of a thin layer of nonconductive silicone. Secure the attached
wires where necessary. A longer length of wire may be used if required.
Note: Failure to uncoil the length of wire attached to the condensate probe can result in a
nuisance water-detected alarm. If the probe is not going to be used it should be disconnected.
3.10 Water Sensing Cable
Another option for water sensing is the Water Detection Cable. This is a long cable that can sense
moisture anywhere along its length. It is typically placed below the unit in a rectangular pattern that
matches the perimeter of the unit.
