Whenever a failure or a malfunction of the device may cause dangerous situations for persons, thing or animals, please remember that the plant has to be equipped with additional electromechanical devices which will guarantee safety. RH sensor and Temperature sensor protective cap The device has been designed as a measuring transducer. Electrical equipment should be installed, operated, serviced, and maintained only by qualified personnel. The installer must ensure that the EMC rules are respected, also after the instrument installation, if necessary using proper filters. Ascon Tecnologic - TRH52 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - PAG. 1

3.1 Mechanical mounting The device, in an 80 x 80 mm plastic container, is designed for wall mounting using screws passing through the slotted holes on the case. - Install the instrument as far as possible from electromagnetic sources as motors, power relay, relays, electrovalves, etc.; - Avoid to place the probe in places where are present corrosive and polluting gases and to do so that the probe are installed in a ventilated position; - The signal cables of the device must be routed separately from the power cables. Should be necessary to remove the protective cap, do /!\ not cause any mechanical...

Measurements errors Reading errors can occur if settling time is too short, or be caused by steam, sprayed water, air drafts, direct exposure to sunlight, or presence of condensation on the sensor. To obtain accurate measurements the sensor should be left to settle in the existing atmosphere for some time. To reduce the possibility of condensation on the humidity sensor place the probe in ventilated position and where there is not a quick and elevation variation of temperature (from cold to warm). It is recommended to clean the box only with a cloth welted with water or with a detergent neither...
