Product Details

Remote Sensor Extension Kit (EX-50)

The EX-50 is manufactured from cable identical to that used in the remote precipitation sensor. Matching outside diameter means a solid, watertight seal when passed through the top-mount strain relief of the sensor enclosure. The cable comes pre-terminated with a watertight circular connector. The included mating connector can be installed on the end of the sensor cable using standard hand tools. No special crimp tools or soldering is required! And, once mated, the M12 circular connectors provide a rugged IP67-rated watertight connection. The special connector provided also allows extending the cable shield, improving noise immunity and preventing false triggering.

Including a thermostatic heat tape switch or controller in your installation will cut power to your heat tape in times it is not needed. This will lessen your environmental footprint and save you money.

Savings will always depend on the weather and how often you have temperatures above the threshold that the switch turns on your heat cable. In most situations where heat cable is needed, savings will offset the cost of the ThermaCord and then some.
