The temperature sensor measures the temperature of various fluid media, such as water, fuel, or oil, over a wide temperature range. It is specially designed for automotive applications. Temperature measurement is via an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) resistor. The signal of the temperature sensor, transmitted in an analog format, is a key input parameter with respect to intelligent engine and gearbox control, for instance in the regulation of engine cold starts and warm operation.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

• Control during cold starts, warm operation, fan actuation, etc.
• High resistance against various media (water, fuels, oil, etc.)
• Broad temperature range
