Sensor Connection
Shielded cable is not generally required for sensor
wiring on runs of less than 50 ft (15.2 m), but is
recommended for lengths greater than 50 ft (15.2 m).
When using shielded cable, isolate and tape the shield
at the sensor. Connect the shield to the COM sensor
terminal on the A350A/B. (See Figure 2 for terminal
location.) The A99BA-200C sensor, which includes
shielded cable, is available if needed.
Note:
At the maximum cable lengths listed in Table 2,
no more than 1F° (0.6C°) error in the sensed
temperature will result due to wire resistance.

Various A99B Series Temperature Sensors and
mounting hardware are available for use with A350
Series Controls. See Tables 3 and 6. The sensor
must be connected to the COM and SEN terminals
on the four-position terminal strip located at the top
left of the printed circuit board (Refer to Figures 2,
4, and 5.). The sensors are not polarity sensitive.
•
The sensor must be mounted so that it can
accurately sense the temperature of the controlled
medium.
