Ground sensor type RayStat-M2-G-Sensor
Designed for embedding into the surface of the outdoor area.
Detects both temperature and moisture.
Mounting of sensor
To be mounted where snow and ice problems normally occur.
The sensor must be embedded horizontally with its top flush with the
surroundings with the help of the accompanying installation plate.
To be mounted on a hard foundation, e.g. in a concrete base or asphalt.
Mounting of sensor cable
The cable must be mounted in accordance with applicable local regulations.
The cable must never be installed parallel to power cables as electrical
interference may distort the sensor signal.
The sensor is supplied with 10 m cable which can be extended up to 200 m using
standard installation cable: 6×1,5 mm². The total resistance of the cable must
be less than 10 Ω.

RAYSTAT-M2 controller
The RAYSTAT-M2 controller relay: terminals 5 & 7.
Relay 5 – 7: NO (Open Loop / > 10MOhm)
Relay 5 – 7: Closed: 0 Ohm
To obtain 230 Vac output on terminal 7, one has to supply 230 Vac on terminal
5 in addition to the 230 Vac supply to the controller itself (L on terminal 1
& N on terminal 2).
In order to obtain Line voltage on terminal 7 when the relay is closed, one
must supply terminal 5 with Line voltage:
