What does the ZS‑IMM sensor measure?

It measures water temperature in hydronic HVAC systems.

Does installation require draining the system?

No. When used with a thermowell, the sensor supports non‑invasive installation, making it ideal for retrofit projects.

How many sensors can be connected to one controller?

Up to 15 ZS immersion sensors can be connected to a single Rnet port.

Is the sensor suitable for outdoor or harsh environments?

Yes. The NEMA 4 / IP66 enclosure and stainless steel probe provide reliable performance in harsh and high‑humidity environments.
