2.2 Description
The model A2G-70 ventilation duct sensor is a humidity probe with an
integrated measurement of the relative humidity and temperature.
The measurement of relative humidity and the air temperature as
the basis of demand-orientated control/regulation is gaining ever
more importance in the ventilation and air-conditioning industry.The
A2G-70 registers the relative humidity and the temperature of the air
with a capacitive sensor. The sensor signals for both measurands are
transmitted to the control/regulation or building automation with analogue
output signals (0 … 10 V, 4 … 20 mA) or digital Modbus®protocol.

5.2 Electrical mounting
The ventilation duct sensor is designed to operate with safety extra-low
voltage (SELV). It must be operated at a constant operating voltage
(±0.2 V). Current/voltage spikes from switching the supply voltage on or
o must be prevented by the customer.
Unscrew the strain relief and connect the cable in accordance with the
connection diagram.Then screw the strain relief back tightly.
