Crestron CHV-RTS/CHV-RTHS Remote Temperature/Humidity Sensors
Remote Temperature/Humidity
Sensors: CHV-RTS/CHV-RTHS
Introduction
The CHV-RTS is a remote temperature sensor.
The CHV-RTHS is a remote temperature/humidity sensor.
Both products connect to the Crestron family of remote controlled thermostat products, which includes two models: CHV-TSTAT and
CHV-THSTAT series. The units are available with and without a humidity sensor (all thermostats contain a temperature sensor).
The current firmware release supports the addition of two optional remote sensors in any combination (two temperature, two temperature/humidity, or one of each).
Subsequent firmware releases will support the addition of up to four optional remote sensors, in any combination, for each thermostat.
Outdoor conditions can be imported from the optional external sensors
CHV-RTS or CHV-RTHS, temperature and temperature/humidity respectively.
Functional Summary
• Small and unobtrusive face allows blending into any décor
• Primed white, may be used as is, painted, or wallpapered
• Easy one-piece mounting (additional hardware not required)
• Readily connects to thermostat with two non-polarized wires

Specifications
SPECIFICATION DETAILS
Temperature Range (CHV-
RTS and CHV-RTHS)
Humidity Range (CHV-
RTHS only)
-30º to 120ºF (-34.44Cº to
48.89ºC)*
0 to 100%
*Thermostat front panel indoor temperature display is limited to a range of 0 – 110ºF (-18º to 43ºC). The front panel outdoor thermostat display will display the full range of temperature.
Physical Description
Refer to the illustrations below and on the following page.
The face of the sensor is 1.5 in (3.81 cm) wide. The sensor body is 2.22 in
(5.64 cm) long, and mounts nearly flush to the wall.
The CHV-RTS and CHV-RTHS remote sensors are contained in a cylindrical plastic body with a metal cap. They mount in a one-inch diameter hole, exposing a 1.5 in (3.81 cm) diameter disk that protrudes approximately 1/8 in (0.32 cm) from the surface of the wall. Total mounting depth is about 2.25 in (5.72 cm).

Remote Temperature/Humidity Sensors Crestron CHV-RTS/CHV-RTHS
Installation
1. Ensure that the location is not close to a heat or humidity source and away from direct sunlight, skylights, and windows. When mounting the sensor outdoors, do not place in direct sunlight, and do not place where the sensor will be directly exposed to precipitation.
2. Locate an area on the wall that is free of miscellaneous wiring and studs.
3. Make a small hole near the center of the designated mounting site to verify that the location is suitable.
4. Drill or cut a 1 in (2.54 cm) diameter circular hole in the wall at the desired position.
5. Route the wires from the thermostat to the sensor. For thermostat connection details, refer to the latest version of Crestron CHV-TSTAT
& CHV-THSTAT Thermostats Operation and Installation Guide,
Doc. 8163.
NOTE: Maximum distance from sensor to thermostat is 500 feet
(152.4 m).
– Ordinary two-conductor thermostat wire (18 to 20 gauge) may be used for runs up to 100 feet (30.48 meters).
– Longer runs should be low-capacitance twisted pair wire such as CAT3
(up to 250 ft, 76.2 m) or CAT5 (up to 500 ft, 152.4 m) network cable.
– Other cable types are satisfactory, provided the total capacitance is less than 7000 pF.
6. Connect the wires from the thermostat to the 10 in (25.4 cm) sensor pigtail (22 AWG x12" black/black twisted pair) using wire nuts. The
wires are non-polarized. (Refer to “Hardware Hookup” on page 5).
7. Press fit the sensor into the hole; the clips on either side of the sensor hold it in place.

NOTE: The face of the sensor may be painted or wallpapered to match the wall. However, keep the small gap around the outer edge clear of any obstructions.
Hardware Hookup
The sensors are connected to the terminal blocks on the rear plastic housing of the thermostat. Separate the thermostat from its backplate. The thermostat terminal blocks mate to pins protruding out of the front thermostat assembly.
NOTE: The current firmware release supports the addition of only two optional remote sensors (temperature and/or temperature/humidity) per thermostat. Future firmware releases will support up to four optional temperature or temperature/humidity sensors, in any combination.
