thermokon CRC9 Series Ceiling Humidity and Temperature Sensor

Product Information

The CRC9- Series (H&T) is a ceiling humidity and temperature sensor designed for measuring temperature, relative humidity, absolute humidity, enthalpy, or dew point in rooms or areas. It features BACnet / Modbus RTU communication protocols and is suitable for use in building automation systems. The sensor is field replaceable and operates with low power supply. It can withstand harsh environmental conditions due to its high protected sensor element.

Product Usage Instructions

To use the CRC9- Series (H&T) sensor, follow these steps:

  1. Select the appropriate communication protocol (BACnet MSTP or Modbus RTU) based on your building automation system requirements.
  2. Install the sensor in the desired location, ensuring it is securely mounted and positioned correctly.
  3. Connect the sensor to the power supply using the provided terminal clamp.
  4. Configure the sensor to measure the desired variable (temperature, relative humidity, absolute humidity, enthalpy, or dew point).
  5. Monitor the sensor output via BACnet MSTP / Modbus RTU communication.
  6. If needed, replace the sensor in the field using a compatible replacement.

Note: The CRC9- Series (H&T) sensor is suitable for use in all common HVAC applications and can be used in commercial and industrial buildings. It offers high humidity accuracy and features a modern and practical product design. It is easy to use, install, and maintain.
