Placement for Maximum Accuracy

AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper placement of both the display and wired temperature sensor is critical to the accuracy and performance of this product.

Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. The display stands upright for tabletop use, is wall-mountable or magnet-mountable.

To observe outdoor temperatures, the wired sensor must be placed outside. The sensor can be securely mounted by using the adhesive pad or the integrated hang hole. Take care not to damage the wired sensor during mounting.

Important Placement Guidelines

  • To ensure accurate temperature measurement, place display and wired sensor out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources or vents.
  • The wired temperature sensor is not waterproof and is not intended for permanent submersion in liquids. Submersion in liquid for more than 30 seconds may result in the failure of the wired sensor.
