Spectrum Sensors and Controls has introduced the Sens-A-Coil thermistor sensor for monitoring the refrigerant temperature in condenser and evaporator coils. This sensor integrates a fast response thermistor element into a plastic overmoulded copper clip specially designed to snap onto 3/8” return bends.
Sens-A-Coil features a sensor housed in a small bulb which is attached to the copper clips. This design maximises sensing surface area, allowing the sensing element to quickly react to any changes in the refrigerant temperature and provide excellent thermal tracking.
The Sens-A-Coil is available in 5 and 10 KΩ models and comes with a 3-metre AWG#22 PVC jacketed cable. The unit also is well suited for use in HVAC diagnostic equipment and tools.
