This sensor is designed to measure air temperature
e.g. in the air box or ambient temperature. The 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 and compact
design.
