2.2 Remote Sensor Install Instructions
This section is applicable only to customers who have purchased a remote
sensor package. The standard DEH 3000 controller does not offer remote
functionality.
2.3 Remote Sensor Usage
IMPORTANT!
• The use of spray paint on the sensor housing may damage the sensor and is not covered by the product
warranty.
The remote sensing option is used when an installation requires mounting the humidity and temperature sensor
out of the conditioned space or when it is desired to specifically monitor and control the conditions at a particular
location in a larger conditioned space.
Both the need for and location of the remote sensor should be determined by a heating/cooling professional.
2.4 Remote Sensor Wiring Instructions
1. Routing signal wires:
You will be required to supply and route 24 gauge, 4 conductor solid wire (2-line telephone wire) between the
DEH 3000R controller and the remote sensor location. • Do not run wires longer than 100 ft.
• The use of 24 gauge wire is optimal. Thinner gauge wire may limit sensor distance. Thicker gauges will not work
with splice connectors provided.
• Avoid routing parallel to high voltage wiring.
• Maintain a distance of 2 ft. or more from high voltage lines.
2. Sensor connection:
The sensor can be mounted to a wall or ceiling surface. Ideal sensor location is 5 ft. above the floor. Wires
should exit through a ½” diameter hole in the mounting surface at the mounting location. Use the provided splice
