This air temperature sensor is suited for external applications since the connections are enclosed in a weatherproof connection box. It is also highly suited to internal applications that require the box to be rugged.
The sensor housing is a perforated stainless steel tube allowing a free airflow across the sensor element hence giving a good response time. For those that require a standard transducer signal, a version having a 4–20mA transmitter is also available.
