NOTICE:

  • Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensing portion may change the resistance value.
  • When measuring, the sensor temp. must be the same as the ambient temperature.

HINT:

As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).

  • If the result is not as specified, replace the cooler (No. 2 room temp. sensor) thermistor.
