IP68 rated Temperature Sensors

07 February 2008

One of the main problems with temperature sensors is the ingress of moisture which can seriously affect the sensor performance - the weakest point often being the lead/sensor interface.

So ATC Semitec have developed a range of TPE encapsulated sensors where the leads and sensor are made from the same material.  This creates a waterproof barrier which is rated to IP68 and can operate upto 105°C.

These cost-effective sensors ensure absolute integrity when used in outdoor locations (e.g. solar panels) as well as in under-floor heating and other HVAC applications.  There are also other options such as stiff lead versions and a high temperature variant rated to150°C.

Double-insulated and rated to 4kV, these IP68 sensors offer complete peace of mind in applications where moisture ingress has previously been a problem.
