Honeywell, C7089R1013/U, Temperature Sensor

Honeywell C7089R1013/U – RedLINK™ Outdoor Temperature and Humidity Sensor

The Honeywell C7089R1013/U is a wireless outdoor sensor designed for use with RedLINK™-enabled thermostats and zoning systems. It provides continuous outdoor temperature and humidity readings, transmitting environmental data to compatible control units for system optimization and climate-based automation.

Application Overview

This sensor is intended for outdoor installation in HVAC systems requiring external ambient monitoring. It supports energy-saving strategies, including balance point control and temperature-based ventilation logic. The unit operates on RedLINK™ wireless technology and integrates seamlessly without the need for wired connections between the sensor and thermostat.

Installation Guidelines

Sensor must be mounted outdoors, shielded from direct sunlight and precipitation for optimal performance. Maintain line-of-sight or minimal obstructions between the sensor and the RedLINK™ thermostat or gateway for best signal integrity. Avoid placement near exhaust vents or artificial heat sources.

Professional Considerations

• Verify compatibility with RedLINK™-enabled devices prior to installation
• Use only lithium batteries for extended temperature range tolerance and reliable power delivery
• Signal range depends on environmental conditions and building materials; assess placement during installation
• Designed for outdoor use only; not intended for indoor remote sensing
