Connecting communicating sensors and PYROCON19 slaves

These devices/sensors can be connected directly to A,B terminals on the 
PYROCON19 or through multiple PYRO-JBOX junction boxes with built 
in 50VA, 110~24VAC transformer  - Allowing connection and powering up 
to 3 sensors.

PYROCON19 

Slave #3

(A2,B2)

or Sensor #3

Note: Use multiple PYRO-JBOXes 
to connect up to 6 sensors and 3 
PYROCON19 slaves

PYROCON19 

Slave #2

(A2,B2)

or Sensor #2

PYROCON19 

Slave #1

(A2,B2)

or Sensor #1

The PYROSENSE aerial sensors are supplied with:

1. A plastic cap, to protect the sensor from dust and debris for when the sensor 

is not in use (off season). 

Important!

The protective cap must be removed before use of the sensor. 

If the protective cap is not removed, the sensor will not detect snow!

2. Plastic spikes, to be used if necessary, to keep birds off the sensor.
