In window ventilation it is used to open automatically when overheating \u2013 for example in a conservatory, greenhouse or attic.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Typical applications<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Conservatory:<\/strong> open roof windows when it gets too warm<\/li><li><strong>Night cooling:<\/strong> ventilate at night when it is cooler outside than inside<\/li><li><strong>Commercial halls:<\/strong> open continuous rooflights or domes in hot weather<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interaction with other sensors<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Temperature alone is not enough: rain and wind sensors must have priority so that windows close in bad weather. Whether and how a control evaluates sensors is stated in the control data sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I need an indoor and an outdoor sensor?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For night cooling, yes \u2013 the control compares both values. For simple overheating protection, an indoor sensor is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does this work with 230 V actuators?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, if the control has suitable outputs. It is more often implemented with 24 V actuators and a ventilation control.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"\/en\/automatic-ventilation-of-the-winter-garden\/\">Guide: Ventilating a conservatory automatically<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"\/en\/dictionary\/night-cooling\/\">Glossary: Night cooling<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"\/en\/dictionary\/wind-monitor\/\">Glossary: Wind monitor<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not sure which actuator fits?
