   Connect one Dry Contact Sensor wire to the float 

switch wire that goes to the thermostat.

 

 

 NOTE: If the unit has more than one float switch, ensure the Dry 

Contact Sensor connects to the last float switch in the series.

   Connect the remaining Dry Contact Sensor wire to 

the C terminal on the HVAC control board.

   The switches on the front of the Dry Contact Sensor 

should be set to NC (black) and 24V (orange).

❻ 

Remove the battery tab from the Dry Contact Sensor.

❼ 

 Using the screws, double-sided adhesive tape, or cable 
tie provided, install the mounting bracket to a wall or 
pipe near the desired monitoring area, and then 
mount the Dry Contact Sensor.

❽  

Turn on power to the HVAC unit. If the LEDs are 
blinking in a pattern, that means the switches are 
configured incorrectly. Please double check the wiring 
and switch positions before testing the unit. 

❾ 

 Test the operation of the Dry Contact Sensor by 
tripping the float sensor and holding it in that position 
for approximately two seconds. Ensure the Alert LED 
on the Dry Contact Sensor turns on for 3 seconds. If the 
sensor remains in the alert state, it will continue to blink 
for 5 minutes.

 Monitoring the R-wire with float switches wired 
between the HVAC transformer and the HVAC 
control board

   Turn off power to the HVAC unit.

   Connect one Dry Contact Sensor wire to the 

R terminal on the HVAC control board.
