ATC Semitec has now added a series of temperature sensors for use in gas boilers and electric heating appliances to their wide range of temperature probes. These sensors are also suitable for a variety of temperature sensing applications where a neat, cost effective solution is required.
Insertion, screw-probe, gasket and clip-on sensors are all available with the main thermistor resistance values used in the boiler industry; 5kohm, 10kohm and 12kohms. Both brass and nickel-plated housings are available with 1/8”BSP gas threads, together with stainless sensors for corrosive environments. Integrally-mounted connectors are based on industry standard 2.5mm pitch terminations.
The pipe-clip sensors are IP67 rated and cover a wide range of pipe diameters from 13-28mm. Very simple to install, they clip securely to the relevant pipe diameter giving a typical response time of less than one second. These clip-on temperature sensors are rated for use from -40/+140oC continuously with an accuracy of ±1oC at 25oC.
