Used for rooftop unit and air handler duct monitoring, this duct temperature sensor reads -40 to 302°F (-40 to 150°C) with a 10 kΩ type II NTC thermistor. In addition, its 4" (10.2 cm) 304 stainless steel probe mounts through a galvanized steel NEMA 1 enclosure. An insulation pad seals the duct and dampens vibration, and ships with a 3-point NIST certificate. This product includes a Traceable Calibration Certificate with full Data and Uncertainties.

The ACI Thermistor Duct Series features a stainless steel probe with two, 22 AWG Etched Teflon colored lead wires to differentiate the different sensor types. The sensors in this series are manufactured using ACI’s proved double encapsulation process to eliminate the effects of moisture on the sensors and increased response times from our high quality, thermally conductive epoxy. The duct sensor is designed to be used in smaller duct applications and includes an insulation pad for sealing your duct and dampening vibration.
The sensor length should be determined by the width or diameter of your duct such that the tip of the probe reaches the approximate center of the duct. Our standard enclosure options are the galvanized enclosure “-GD” or plastic duct enclosure with hinged cover “-PB”.
On larger ducts, you may want to refer to our Rigid or Bendable Copper Averaging sensor for increased sensing points and better temperature control. This series can be ordered with optional NEMA/IP rated weather proof enclosures and NIST certificates as referenced on the back of the product data sheet.
