The Liebert THW420 combination 

temperature/humidity transmitter is 

designed to meet applications that 

require local sensing of both 

temperature and humidity in a single, 

aesthetically pleasing enclosure.
This device incorporates a digital 

solid state temperature and 

capacitive humidity sensor. The 

transmitter requires 24 VDC. The 

sensor provides an accurate and 

predictable four-wire, 4-20 mA 

output signal for temperature and 

a second 4-20 mA output signal 

for humidity.

Termination

NOTE: 

Risk of accidental electric 

arc. Can cause equipment damage. 

Vertiv recommends wiring the 

sensor WITHOUT power applied; 

accidental arcing may damage the 

product and will void the warranty.

The Liebert THW420 transmitter 

must be powered from a 24 VDC 

supply. The combination 

temperature/humidity sensor is 

terminated as follows:

•  The humidity transmitter 

requires a three-wire 

termination for the 4-20mA 

output using 24 VDC.

•  The temperature sensor also 

requires a threewire termination. 

In most cases, it obtains power 

from the analog input to which 

it is connected and no external 

power is required.

Though interference from external 

sources is not a major problem with 

current transmitters, Liebert 

recommends separating the wiring 

from line voltage wiring and from 

wiring used to supply highly 

inductive loads such as motors, 

generators and coils. Vertiv also 

recommends making power 

connections with twisted pair wire 

of at least 22 AWG and crimp-type 

connectors.
