Copeland 998-1400-02 Thermistor & Bracket

Copeland 998-1400-02 Thermistor & Bracket

The Copeland 998-1400-02 Thermistor & Bracket is a critical Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) internal sensor kit designed for precision motor protection in high-performance compressor applications. This OEM Copeland part utilizes an avalanching resistance curve to monitor internal temperatures, ensuring the motor remains within safe operating parameters between -40°F and 248°F. As a technical professional, you recognize the importance of replacing degraded thermistor sensors to prevent nuisance tripping or terminal motor failure. The kit includes a robust metal mounting bracket for secure mechanical attachment, ensuring stable thermal contact for accurate resistance readings. This assembly is standard for solid-state protection systems in Copeland scroll and reciprocating compressors, where the sensor's ohms vary from 500 (cold) to upwards of 20,000 (hot). Integrating this HVAC compressor thermistor maintains the calibration of the electronic protector module, protecting your client's hardware against thermal overload and phase loss conditions without requiring complex wiring modifications.

Key Benefits
  • Precise Thermal Response: Features PTCR technology that provides a sharp resistance increase at critical temperature thresholds for rapid shutdown response.
  • Wide Temperature Range: Engineerd to operate reliably from -40°F to 248°F, making it suitable for low-temp refrigeration and high-temp HVAC applications.
  • OEM Fit and Finish: Includes the metal bracket for exact fitment, ensuring the sensor stays seated against the windings for low-latency temperature detection.
  • System Reliability: Essential for maintaining the integrity of solid-state motor protection modules, preventing costly catastrophic compressor failures.
Common Questions

Is this thermistor compatible with all Copeland compressors?
This kit is designed specifically for compressors utilizing electronic motor protection. Always verify your specific model and serial number, as resistance values must match the requirements of the protection module (typically resetting between 2700-4500 ohms).

Can I test this part with a standard multimeter?
Yes, you can measure the resistance across the leads. At room temperature, the Copeland 998-1400-02 should show a low resistance (approximately 500 ohms) and increase significantly as heat is applied. If it shows an open circuit or infinite resistance at ambient temperature, the sensor has failed.

Does the bracket come pre-installed on the thermistor?
The 998-1400-02 is provided as a kit including the PTCR thermistor and the specific bracket required for mounting to the compressor frame or internal housing, ensuring a complete field replacement solution.
