PTE-Cable

PTE-Cable

Cable sensor for HVAC applications

PTE-Cable is a passive temperature sensor engineered for HVAC applications. PTE-Cable senses temperatures in a wide range. It is well protected from the environment by its stainless steel sleeve which is crimped on to premium quality silicone rubber cable. Inside the sleeve, the temperature sensor is protected against condensation, ensuring long service life. The cable is halogen-free and oil resistant. PTE-Cable has a high protection rating of IP67.

PTE-Cable is available with the following sensor types:

  • NTC10k
  • NTC20k
  • Pt1000
  • Ni1000
  • Ni1000-LG

Applications

DPT-Flow Series-4 devices are commonly used in HVAC/R
systems for:

• Air flow monitoring across centrifugal fans and blowers
• In-duct air flow monitoring
• VAV applications
