Temperature vs. Resistance Data
The EasyTouch PL4/PSL4 Control Systems use 10k Ohm thermistor sensors. When the solar
sensor is disconnected from the control system, the sensor will read 10k Ohm at 77º F (25ºC). Refer
to the following table for the resistance at other temperatures. An accurate reading should give a
temperature setting that is accurate

3. Run 22 AWG two-conductor cable (included in kit) between the sensor and the enclosure.
Route the cable up through the low voltage raceway to the circuit board. See illustration on
page 5.
4. Cut off the excess conductor and the strip conductors ¼ inch. Use waterproof connectors
(provided) to connect the sensor to cable.
