Crestron CHV-RTHS Remote Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor

Crestron part number CHV-RTHS

The Crestron CHV-RTHS is a wall-mounted remote sensor that measures temperature and relative humidity for select Crestron thermostats. Its 39 mm face sits only about 3 mm proud of the wall and can be painted or wallpapered to blend in with the room.

Crestron CHV-RTHS Remote Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor

About the Crestron CHV-RTHS

The sensor measures indoor temperatures from -18 to 43°C and outdoor temperatures from -35 to 49°C, with a tolerance of ±0.5°C over the full range. Relative humidity is measured from 0% to 100% with a tolerance of ±5%. It connects to the thermostat over a single non-polarised twisted pair and can be up to 152 m (500 ft) away using CAT5 or similar low-capacitance wire.

The one-piece sensor has a cylindrical plastic body and a primed metal cap. It mounts in drywall through a 26 mm (1 in) round hole, and a flush drywall mount is also listed. The MMK-RS pre-construction mounting kit, sold separately, makes wiring and positioning easier at the rough-in stage and allows the sensor to be fully flush mounted so it is almost hidden.

Questions about the Crestron CHV-RTHS

What is the Crestron CHV-RTHS?

It is a wall-mounted remote sensor that measures temperature and relative humidity for select Crestron thermostats. The 39 mm face protrudes only about 3 mm from the wall, and its primed metal cap can be painted or wallpapered to blend in with the surface.

How accurate is the CHV-RTHS?

Temperature tolerance is ±1°F (±0.5°C) over the full range and ±1°F (+0.1/-0.4°C) at room temperatures. Humidity tolerance is ±5%. It measures indoor temperatures from -18 to 43°C, outdoor temperatures from -35 to 49°C and humidity from 0% to 100% RH.

How far from the thermostat can the CHV-RTHS be mounted?

Up to 500 ft (152 m), using CAT5 or similar low-capacitance wire. It connects through a single non-polarised twisted pair, and the sensor has a 10 in (254 mm) 2-wire twisted-pair pigtail for the connection.

What is the MMK-RS used for?

The MMK-RS is a pre-construction mounting kit, sold separately. It simplifies wiring and positioning of the sensor during the rough-in stage of construction, and it gives the option of mounting the sensor completely flush so it is almost hidden on the wall.

How is the sensor mounted?

It uses one-piece mounting in drywall through a 1 in (26 mm) round hole and protrudes about 1/8 in (3 mm) from the wall. A flush drywall mount is also listed. The cylindrical plastic body is 39 mm in diameter and 57 mm deep.

How much is the Crestron CHV-RTHS?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the CHV-RTHS directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the CHV-RTHS?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the CHV-RTHS on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the CHV-RTHS come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the CHV-RTHS develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the CHV-RTHS in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the CHV-RTHS without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
