Receiver and air-conditioning device equipped with same

An air-conditioning device comprising:

• an indoor unit;
• a suction air temperature sensor provided for the indoor unit to measure a temperature of indoor air drawn into the indoor unit;
• a controller performing a control operation;
• a receiver including
• a receiving section measuring an ambient temperature and receiving a signal of a measurement value (Tm2), the measurement value (Tm2) being transmitted from a wireless temperature sensor unit separate from the indoor unit by radio,
• an input connector connected to a sensor signal line, the sensor signal line being configured to transfer a signal of a measurement value (Tm1) of the suction air temperature sensor,
• a signal generator generating a signal serving as an index of indoor temperature, based on the measurement values (Tm1, Tm2) of the wireless temperature sensor unit and the suction air temperature sensor, and
• a signal output section outputting the signal generated by the signal generator to the controller, the receiver being provided for the indoor unit;
• and
• a component controlled by the control operation of the controller, wherein
• the controller receives the signal generated by the signal generator and performs the control operation using the received signal, and
• the receiver is separate from the controller, and is housed in a casing of the indoor unit together with the controller.
