Duct Temperature Sensor Installation Guide
Sensor Overview
The Wireless and Power over Ethernet (PoE) PoE•X Duct Temperature Sensor uses an NTC thermistor with an 8-foot lead wire to accurately measure temperatures in ductwork while maintaining a sealed environment.Specifications:
- Accurate to ± 1° C (± 1.8°F)
- Increased accuracy by user calibration to ± 0.25° C (± 0.45° F)
- Probe temperature range of -40°C to +150°C (-40°F to +302°F)
- 8 ft UL listed plenum cable
Installation Steps
Note: If this is your first time setting up your ParamaIoT system, you must first set up your ParamaIoT account and connect your IoT or Ethernet Gateway to iMonnit before registering your sensor. See this article for steps outlining how to get started: Creating a ParamaIoT account.
Step 1.
Remove the sensor from the package. If installing an industrial sensor, attach the antenna.
Step 2.
Register the sensor in ParamaIoT. Do not install the batteries until told to do so in ParamaIoT.
Step 3.
Determine the sensor’s installation location. We recommend placing the sensor in the location and making sure it reports to the gateway before final installation. See this article if you use an A Button Press Sensor to perform a site survey to determine sensor installation location.
If installing a PoE•X sensor, ensure there is sufficient cable to reach the sensor.
Step 4.
Using a 1/4" drill bit, drill a hole in the ductwork for thermistor placement. Insert the thermistor and mark the location of the two mounting holes. Drill out the mounting holes.
Step 5.
After ensuring that the sensor is communicating with the gateway, mount the sensor using the supplied screws or double-sided tape.
Step 6.
Mount the lead end to the ductwork using the supplied screws.
