Crestron PC-TS – Remote Temperature Sensor for PC-350V Power Controllers

Product Overview

The Crestron PC-TS is a remote temperature sensor accessory for the PC-350V series networked power controllers. It monitors ambient temperature in the rack or installation space and reports readings back to the power controller, enabling temperature-triggered alerts and automated responses to overheating conditions. The sensor covers a measurement range of -13° to 221°F (-25° to 105°C) with an accuracy of ±3°F (±2°C), and connects to the power controller via an 8 ft cable with a 2-pin Phoenix connector.

Product Description

Temperature monitoring is a key element of rack health management in AV and IT installations. The PC-TS allows the PC-350V to track ambient temperature at the sensor location and trigger configurable alerts or control actions when thresholds are exceeded, helping prevent equipment damage from overheating in enclosed racks or equipment rooms. The 8 ft cable provides flexibility for sensor placement away from the power controller body — at the top of the rack, near heat-generating equipment, or in the air path of the cooling system. The black plastic housing is unobtrusive in standard rack installations. A compatible PC-350V power controller is required and sold separately.

FAQs

Is the PC-350V power controller included?

No. The PC-TS is an accessory and requires a compatible PC-350V series power controller, which is sold separately.

How far can the sensor be placed from the power controller?

The sensor cable is 8 ft long. For longer runs, an extension cable may be required.

What happens when the temperature threshold is exceeded?

The PC-350V can be configured to generate alerts, trigger control actions, or shut down controlled outlets when the temperature threshold is reached. Configuration is done via the PC-350V settings.
