Connecting temperature probes
When routing the temperature probe cables, do not run them in or along the same
conduit as AC-power lines. Follow the guidelines on page 12.
You can extend probe cables up to 500 feet. For more information, read To
extend probe cable
below.
You can monitor and average the temperatures in four zones. For more
information, read
To use four-zone averaging on page 20.
Replace damaged probes as soon as possible. If there is no probe present or
working properly, the TVS shuts off stage 3 and operates variable stages 1 and 2 at
idle speed.
To connect a single temperature probe
Do not run the probe cable in the same conduit as AC power cables
Do not run the sensor cable beside AC power cables or near electrical equipment.
When crossing other cables or power lines, cross them at a 90-degree angle.
To extend probe cable
You can extend temperature probe cables to lengths of up to 500 feet. Follow the guidelines below
and on page 12 when extending cables.
Use 2-wire 18 AWG jacketed cable. Phason recommends Belden #9408, Alpha #5052, or an
equivalent. Extension cable is also available from Phason. For more information, contact your
dealer or Phason.
Join the extension cable to the temperature probe cable as shown in the following diagram.
If the unit operates erratically with the extended probe, run the cable along a different path or
shorten it.
