This sensor is designed to measure fluid temperatures
e.g. oil, water or fuel. This signal may be used as a
control value for engine control units or as a measurement
value which is logged in a data acquisition system.
The NTC sensing element has a negative temperature
coefficient. This means, that with increasing temperature
the conductivity rises. The sensing element of the
temperature sensor is made of semiconducting heavy
metal oxide and oxidized mixed crystals, which are
equipped with a protective housing.
The main benefit of the sensor is the combination of a
high quality production part and a robust compact design.
