The Carrier line of communicating ZS immersion sensors are designed to monitor water temperature in pipe applications. The sensor is potted inside a 1/4” stainless steel probe with a thermally conductive compound. All immersion units are mounted in a thermowell and have etched Teflon® lead-wires and double encapsulated sensors to create a watertight package that can withstand a wide range of humidity and condensation.
The ZS immersion sensors connect directly to the dedicated sensor network (Rnet) of a Carrier i-Vu controller. This communicating sensor network supports up to 15 ZS sensors through a single port, eliminating the need to consume multiple inputs on the controller.
