PTE-Duct

PTE-Duct

Duct temperature sensor for HVAC applications

PTE-Duct is a passive temperature sensor engineered for HVAC applications. PTE-Duct is used to sense air temperature inside a ventilation duct. The temperature sensor is housed inside a stainless steel tube that protects it from the environment and condensation, ensuring long service life.

PTE-Duct 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
