Glass Coated NTC Thermistor
Applications
Glass-coated NTC thermistor sensors are designed for high-precision temperature measurement and temperature compensation in demanding environments.
The glass encapsulation provides superior protection against moisture, chemical corrosion, and thermal shock, ensuring long-term stability and reliability.
Typical Applications include:
1. Automotive Systems: Battery temperature sensing, ECU temperature monitoring, and HVAC sensors.
2. Industrial Equipment: Temperature monitoring in power modules, chargers, and control systems.
3.Home Appliances: Air conditioners, water heaters, ovens, and refrigerators.
4.Medical Devices: Precision temperature sensing and calibration.
5.Energy Storage Systems: Cell and module temperature management in EV batteries.
6.Environmental Sensors: Room and ambient temperature monitoring, HVAC and building automation.
Features
High Temperature Endurance : Operates typically from –55°C to +250°C, suitable for high-temperature applications.
Superior Moisture Resistance : Glass encapsulation prevents humidity and corrosion from affecting sensor performance.
Excellent Stability : Provides minimal drift in resistance even under continuous operation or thermal cycling.
High Accuracy : Available in tolerances of ±1%, ±2%, ±3%, ensuring precise temperature measurement.
Fast Response Time : Thin glass layer allows rapid thermal transfer for quick sensing.
Compact Size : Miniature form factors suitable for PCB or embedded use
Robust Mechanical Strength : Resistant to vibration and shock, ideal for automotive and industrial environments.
