SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Our probes are built to the highest standards but misuse or improper protection or improper installation

may break your sensor and possibly void the manufacturer's warranty. Before integrating your sensors

into your sensor network, make sure you have followed the recommended installation instructions and

have the proper protections in place to safeguard your sensor from damaging interference.

LIGHTNING AND SURGE PROTECTION

Probes have built in circuitry that protects them against common surge conditions. Installations in

lightning-prone areas, however, require special precautions, especially when probes are connected to a

well-grounded third party logger.

Visit our website and read the following application note for more information:

Lightning Surge Suppression And Standard Grounding Practices

POWER AND GROUNDING

Older sensor versions start measurements as soon as they are powered. For older sensors, ensure that

there is sufficient power to support the maximum sensor current drain for all the sensors on the bus

simultaneously.

Our sensor protection circuitry may be insufficient if your data logger is improperly powered or grounded.

Refer to your data logger's installation instructions. Improper grounding may affect the sensor output as

well as the sensor performance.

For Decagon loggers, visit our website and read the following article for more information:

CABLE PROBLEMS

Cable problems can lead to severed cables or disconnected sensors. Rodent damage, driving over sensor

cables, tripping over the cable, not leaving enough cable slack during installation or poor sensor wiring

connections are just some of many factors that can cause cabling issues.
