When possible, route the sensor through the same access port used by the
unit control sensor or an accessory port, such as that shown below in
Figure 9. Mount the Smart-Vue sensor as close to the unit control sensor as
possible.

CAUTION: We do not recommend inserting the sensor through the door
gasket on CO

incubators, as this may result in water condensation in units
that are operating at high humidity levels.

When installing a PT100 sensor in an ultra-low-temperature (ULT) freezer,
it is easiest to proceed with a thawed freezer.
When possible, route the sensor through the same access port used by the unit
control sensor or an accessory port, such as that shown in Figure 10.
When routing the Smart-Vue sensor through the same port used by the
control sensor, Thermo Scientific recommends installing the sensor only
after the freezer has reached a thawed state.
To negate the possibility of condensation dripping on the electronics, avoid
routing the cable in close proximity to any electrical enclosures.
Mount the Smart-Vue sensor as close to the unit control sensor as possible.
When possible, we recommend mounting the Smart-Vue sensor within 5
cm (2 inches) of the control sensor.
When mounting the Smart-Vue sensor, avoid direct contact with the wall of
the freezer. This will ensure the sensor is mounted to permit measurement
of air temperature only.
