These sensors are ideal for applications where surrounding air temperature needs to be measured reliably and precisely at low-cost.
These bare thermistor chip versions bring cost-effective alternatives to glass-encapsulated thermistor elements but still give high heat resistance, fast response and are designed for quick assembly.
Available in many different configurations. Either a standard design or a high-level customised modification to ideally meet the technical and commercial requirements of the specific application.
Various technical parameters can be modified such as materials used or characteristics of the sensor to ensure optimised application related solutions at the lowest price.
