l where water, oil, or chemicals may splash onto the unit;

Ensure that ambient conditions are within specifications
Gocator sensors are suitable for operation between 0–50° C and 25–85% relative humidity (non-
condensing). Measurement error due to temperature is limited to 0.015% of full scale per degree C. The
storage temperature is -30–70° C.
The Master network controllers are similarly rated for operation between 0–50° C.
The sensor must be heat-sunk through the frame it is mounted to. When a sensor is properly heat
sunk, the difference between ambient temperature and the temperature reported in the sensor's
health channel is less
than 15° C.
Gocator sensors are high-accuracy devices, and the temperature of all of its components must
therefore be in equilibrium. When the sensor is powered up, a warm-up time of at least one hour is
required to reach a consistent spread of temperature in the sensor.
