Immersion type water temperature sensor
Installation:
Water temperature sensors can be located at any suitable location in the system.A NPT female pipe fitting is welded into the pipe.These fittings are usually supplied and installed by the piping trade under direction of the controls trade.The fitting can be welded on any suitable section of pipe, in either a horizontal or vertical pipe section.Choose an orientation where any condensation will not drip into the electrical box, such as the top of a horizontal pipe section.Before threading the sensor into the well, deposit some thermal paste in the bottom of the well to improve heat conduction between the metal parts.The sensor is wired with two conductor 18 ga, unshielded twisted pair.
