Room RH & RH/T Transmitters
IMPORTANT WARNINGS
- Only qualified trade installers should install this product
- This product is not intended for life-safety applications
- Do not install in hazardous or classified locations
- The installer is responsible for all applicable codes
- De-energize power supply prior to installation or service
PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITATION:
Senva products are not designed for life or safety applications.
Senva products are not intended for use in critical applications such as
nuclear facilities, human implantable device or life support. Senva is not
liable, in whole or in part, for any claims or damages arising from such uses.
INSTALLATION
-
IMPORTANT! Locate sensor in an area away from ventilation sources and heat generating equipment and appliances.
Sensor should be mounted at light switch height in a vertical orientation. Use insulating material behind sensor to ensure reading accuracy.
NOTE : Do not install sensor in multi-gang electrical boxes with line voltage or other electrical devices. -
Wire sensor as shown above.
-
Set the slide selector position (on back of device) to accommodate either 2-wire or 3-wire outputs. This selector must be ‘up’ for a voltage output.
-
Set DIP switch positions to accommodate your application.
DIP switch 2 only applies to units with transmitter temperature output selected. -
See mounting section.
-
Apply power to sensor.
OPERATION
Press center MENU button to cycle between (1) the sensor readouts, (2) %RH
offset, (3) temperature offset (transmitter version only), and (4) ºF/ºC
display settings (LCD version only).
The next press will return to the readout menu.
The lower arrow and upper arrow can be used to decrease or increase offset
values in 0.1 increments up to ±5 (% or o) or choose between ºC and ºF.
If no LCD is present, the same menu structure applies except the oF/oC setting
will not be accessible. A red LED will blink to indicate %RH offset setting
and glow solid to indicate temperature offset setting in oF.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom | Solution |
---|---|
No output | Check wiring. Ensure power supply meets requirements. |
Temp or RH reading error | Verify control panel software is configured for |
correct output scaling.
Verify accuracy of test instrument. Observe installation and calibration
guidelines
Verify unit is located away from sources of hot/cold.
Verify RH IT sensing element is inserted properly
Install insulation foam gasket provided to prevent thermal conduction from
inside wall.
Perform calibration only if necessary.
MOUNTING
IF MOUNTING INTO A JUNCTION BOX:
- Remove drywall clamps by turning screws counter clockwise.
IF MOUNTING INTO DRYWALL:
- Turn both mounting clamps all the way counter clockwise.
- Insert into drywall cutout.
- Turn screws clockwise to tighten drywall mounts until tight to wall.
CALIBRATION
Senva RH sensors are factory calibrated to NIST traceable standards. No field
calibration is necessary or recommended.
However, to facilitate compliance with job requirements and commissioning
procedures, provisions for field calibration are provided:
- Locate calibration instrument and sensor in close proximity to each other in a controlled environment free of drafts, people, and equipment to reduce influence on RH and temperature.
- Compare output of sensor to calibration instrument, and note difference. (In 0-10v mode, 1v = 10%RH)
- Using the buttons on front of unit, adjust offset value for %RH as needed. Factory calibration may be restored by setting offset back to 0.
