Automation Components Inc (ACI) A/AN-D-8-PB Thermistor
The Automation Components Inc (ACI) A/AN-D-8-PB Thermistor is a high-precision duct temperature sensor engineered for HVAC Building Automation and light industrial systems. This 10K Type III thermistor features an 8-inch stainless steel probe designed for accurate air temperature measurement in air handling units and zone control systems. The sensor utilizes a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) curve, ensuring a resistance of 10,000 Ohms at 77°F (25°C). To ensure long-term reliability in environments prone to condensation, the sensing element is double encapsulated to prevent moisture infiltration and sensor drift. The unit is housed in a durable ABS plastic enclosure with a NEMA 1 rating, featuring a built-in mounting flange and a foam pad to dampen vibrations and provide a secure seal against the duct wall. With its easy open/close latch system, this sensor eliminates the need for mounting screws on the cover, streamlining the installation process for technicians.
Key Benefits
- High Accuracy: Delivers precise temperature monitoring with a standard accuracy of +/- 0.36°F (0.2°C).
- Moisture Protection: The double encapsulated sensor design significantly reduces the risk of failure due to humidity or moisture.
- Quick Installation: Features a built-in flange and foam vibration pad for an airtight, rapid mount.
- Tool-less Access: The "PB" plastic box enclosure uses a latch system for fast wiring access without extra hardware.
- Broad Compatibility: The 10K Type III curve is a standard for many leading Building Automation Systems (BAS).
Common Questions
How do I know if I need a Type III thermistor?
The 10K Type III curve is distinct from Type II; you should verify your controller's input requirements to ensure the resistance-to-temperature curve matches the 10,000 Ohm @ 77°F specification.
Can this sensor be mounted on the bottom of a duct?
It is highly recommended to mount the sensor on the top or side of the duct. Mounting on the bottom increases the risk of moisture pooling inside the enclosure, which can lead to premature failure.
What is the purpose of the foam pad?
The foam pad serves two purposes: it dampens mechanical vibrations from the air handler and creates an airtight seal to prevent air leakage from the 3/8" drilled mounting hole.
