Precision temperature sensing designed for diverse environments and effortless integration.
The Carrier ZS- Remote Sensor is engineered for precise temperature sensing in challenging environments. Its robust design includes an outdoor-rated polycarbonate enclosure that withstands harsh conditions, ensuring reliability and performance. Designed to integrate seamlessly with Carrier's i-Vu® controllers, the ZS remote sensor connects via the Rnet network, allowing up to 15 sensors to function from a single controller port. Whether retrofitting an installation or accessing hard-to-reach areas, this versatile sensor delivers efficient, energy-conscious solutions for modern building automation.
The sensor is designed to sense temperature in harsh environments and locations unsuitable for standard room sensors.
The device supports temperature monitoring in hard‑to‑reach areas, retrofit scenarios, and applications requiring integration of a standard thermistor into the Rnet network.
The housing is constructed from polycarbonate (UL94V‑0) and rated NEMA 4 / IP66, with UV resistance for outdoor use.
Supports a 10K Type 2 thermistor (purchased separately) using 22 AWG twisted‑pair cable, with a maximum sensor distance of 50 ft.
Power is supplied via the 4‑conductor Rnet cable from the controller (+12 VDC @ 210 mA).
An external power supply may be used if additional power is required, and both supplies must share a common ground.
It allows temperature sensing in locations where a standard ZS room sensor cannot be installed.
Yes. The enclosure is NEMA 4 / IP66 rated and UV resistant, making it suitable for outdoor and harsh environments.
No. It communicates over the Rnet network, allowing multiple sensors to be connected without consuming additional controller inputs.
