ZS Outdoor Air Sensors
ZS-OA
Temperature Only, Temperature Plus Humidity
The Carrier ZS line of communicating outdoor air sensors are designed to measure the air temperature and/or humidity outdoors. Designed for outdoor mounting, the UV-resistant plastic shield keeps the sensor out of the sunlight and allows for excellent air circulation. These outdoor sensors have etched Teflon® lead wires and can withstand high humidity and condensation environments. They are made to perform in a wide range of temperature and moisture conditions.
The ZS outdoor air 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.
- Effortless Integration: Seamlessly integrates with Carrier i-Vu building automation systems, allowing for easy installation and configuration within your existing system.
- Reliable Performance: Provides accurate and consistent temperature and humidity readings in various weather conditions, ensuring dependable data for informed decision making.
- Simplified Design: Connect up to 15 sensors on a single controller port, reducing wiring complexity and installation time for a more streamlined and efficient setup.
- Durable Construction: Features a NEMA 4, IP66, UV-rated enclosure, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliable operation even in harsh outdoor environments.
- Optimized Efficiency: Delivers precise outdoor air data to the i-Vu system, enabling optimal HVAC control, improved energy savings, and enhanced occupant comfort.
- Reduced Costs: Lowers installation and operating costs through simplified design, optimized energy consumption, and minimal maintenance requirements.
- Compliance: Aids in meeting FCC Part 15-Subpart B-Class B and CE regulatory standards, for compliance and reliable operation.
