Flying lead temperature sensor | NTC 3 Kohm | metal probe | 1 m
Product description
This is a passive temperature probe for precise temperature measurement utilizing an NTC sensor element. It is resin encapsulated and inserted in a stainless steel tube (53 x 8 mm) for reliability in diverse environments.
This temperature probe has a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) of resistance: when the temperature rises, the resistance reduces (NTC 3 kΩ). The 1 metre long integrated cable is unshielded and has two twisted wires (2 x 0,5 mm²).
Additional specifications and description
How does it work?
This temperature probe measures ambient temperature via a platinum element (NTC). This sensor element has an electrical resistance of 3 Kohms at 25 °C. It has a negative temperature coefficient. This means that the resistance decreases when the ambient temperature rises. Any device with an input for 'NTC passive temperature sensors' can read out the measured temperature.
What is an NTC probe?
NTC thermistor probes measure temperature in various industries - from automotive, through green energy to domestic appliances, and even though their applications are endless, they are indispensable for HVAC.
The NTC thermistors increase or decrease their resistive value as the operating temperature around them fluctuates. They are extensively utilized as temperature sensors across a broad spectrum of equipment and systems, making them the preferred choice in virtually all applications where temperature monitoring is essential.
NTC thermistors are characterized by a negative resistance-temperature relationship. Their negative response enables them to exhibit significant variations in electrical resistance with even minor fluctuations in temperature. This property makes them well-suited for precise temperature monitoring and control application.

How to connect?
This temperature sensor has an integrated cable. This unshielded 2-wire cable has a length of 1 m. The wires have a cross section of 0,5 mm². If necessary, this cable can be extended. The longer the cable length, the higher the influence of the resistance of the cable on the measurement readout. This sensor doesn't require a separate power supply.
Stainless steel tube, resin encapsulated
Sentera’s thermistor probe is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor chip, encapsulated in epoxy and potted in a steel tube housing with two wire leads. The stainless steel tube (53 x 8 mm) offers an IP65 protection degree against ingress of dirt and water.
