Description:
HVAC and refrigeration engineers have searched for
years for a cost effective sensor capable of monitoring
the refrigerant temperature in condenser and evaporator coils. In these applications, the only suitable place
to mount the sensor is on the coil return bend, which
makes sensor attachment a very difficult design problem.
Sens-A-Coil Thermistor Sensor
In the past, a number of “thermowell” or strap-on designs have been used but they were either difficult and
time- consuming to install or they did not accurately
sense the refrigerant temperature. The MS Sens-ACoil solves the problem by integrating a fast response
thermistor element into a plastic overmolded copper
clip specially designed to snap onto 3/8" return bends.
Because the sensor is housed in a small bulb which is
attached to the copper clips, the Sens-A-Coil maximizes
sensing surface area which enables the sensing element to quickly react to any changes in the refrigerant
temperature. And since no tools are needed to install
the Sens-A-Coil, both time and money can be saved in
production and field service environments. The SensA-Coil is also well suited for use in HVAC diagnostic
equipment and tools.
This patented (Patent #6,814,486 B2) design from MS is
the solution for sensing condenser and evaporator return
bend temperatures. The Sens-A-Coil comes standard with
10ft. of AWG#22 PVC jacketed cable. Please contact the
factory for specific design or application information
or the availability of options.
