Mount Discharge Temperature Sensor
3
REQUIRED:
A Discharge
Temperature Sensor is required.
The Discharge Temperature
Sensor (DTS) must be mounted
a minimum of 8” above the edge
of the supply duct (additional
distance is preferred when
possible). In addition, the
DTS must be 2” above the
Static Pressure Probe if used.
Locate the DTS in an area of
the discharge air duct where
less air turbulence is expected.
Avoid dead air areas where
representative discharge air
temperatures may not exist.
OPTIONAL
: A return air sensor
(SEN 00462) may be installed to
monitor the return air temperature
at the indoor unit. The mixed
air sensor (SEN 00462) is used
to monitor mix air when using
bypass (future use).
Determine the proper positioning of the DTS as
follows:
•
If a radiant heat source such as an electric
heater is in line of sight from the thermistor,
position the sensor so that the black thermistor
faces away from the radiant heat source. (This
will prevent a false reading due to the radiant
effect on the thermistor.)
Drill a hole for mounting the DTS. A minimum hole
size of 7/8” will be required.
The mounting plate can be used as a template to
locate the four screw holes.
