Probe Temperature Sensor

The strap-on Insert sensor consists of a stainless steel sheath temperature sensor, thermal conducting compound, and an adjustable pipe bracket accessory. The stainless steel sheath temperature sensor is suitable for direct application to pipe surfaces for chilled or hot water measurement.

This sensor is used to measure the supply and return temperature in HVAC system. The flange mount design makes it easy to install the sensor in tight quarters. There are several sensor elements to choose from which guarantee compatibility with all popular DDC systems. The probe in the photo is our standard model which is always in stock, it has a 8″ probe and a 120″ cable, and employs either a precision thermistor or platinum film sensor, so field calibration is not required. The 10ft(3m) cable is “Plenum Rated”.

These thermowells are designed for mounting temperature sensors in pipes and tanks.The thermowells are designed to handle this stress while providing good thermal contact with the fluid.They also provide isolation, if the sensor needs to be serviced the system can remain in operation without having to drain the lines. The thermowells are machined from a single piece of bar stock, there are no welds as found on competing products.

This sensor is used to measure the outside air temperature to allow the DDC system to coordinate the mechanical systems with actual building load conditions, enabling such strategies as free cooling, optimum start/stop, and supply temperature reset. The housing is made from PVC and stainless steel fittings which shield the probe from direct sunlight. There are three thermistor based models, and one RTD version to provide compatibility with the majority of DDC systems.
