Troubleshooting 

 

Problem 

Solution 

Sensor reading is incorrect 

 

Verify sensor wiring to controller is not damaged and has continuity. 

 

Verify sensor or wires are not shorted together. 

 

Verify controller is setup for correct sensor curve. 

 

Disconnect wires from sensor terminal block, tighten terminal block 
screws down, and take a resistance (ohm) reading with a multimeter. 

 

Compare the resistance reading to the Temperature Vs Resistance 
Curves online:

Verify proper mounting location to confirm no external factors are 
affecting reading. 

Sensor reads infinity/very high 
resistance 

Sensor or wires are open. 

Sensor reads low resistance 

Sensor or wires are shorted together. 

Erratic readings 

 

Condensation on PCB board 

 

Bad wire connections. 

 

 

W.E.E.E. Directive 

 

At the end of their useful life the packaging and product should be disposed of via a suitable recycling center. Do not 
dispose of with household waste. Do not burn.
