Cable Sensor Temperature Drop

Data Sheet

Temperature drop for cable sensors on

LV bus terminations
In house tests show 1°C drop per inch from termination.
Therefore, if sensors are placed as shown, this will create a
-2°C drop to the cable the sensor is mounted on (based on
the sensor being installed 2” down from termination). (A)
There could potentially be a -4°C drop when sensor on cable
(A) is also monitoring adjacent termination/s (B), which are
2” from termination (A).
[Please note- this is based on mounting as per QHI instructions and
on LV cables only]
