Clip-on Temperature Sensor for Anti-Legionnaires Systems

As Legionella continues to pose a real but avoidable risk to public health, ATC Semitec stock a range of IP67 rated pipe clip temperature sensors. These can be simply and quickly attached to the water pipe, without the need for drilling holes or making special couplings for conventional probe sensors. As part of a water monitoring system, our sensor ensures that water temperatures are maintained at lower than 20°C or higher than 45°C.

These neat surface temperature sensors use highly accurate NTC thermistors and are ideal for use within anti-legionnaires systems, domestic and industrial water systems, hot water showers, gas boilers, heating and air conditioning systems

The BTS3 sensor from ATC Semitec enables you to accurately and quickly sense water temperature from the outside of a metal pipe. The sensor simply fastens over the pipe and is held in place by a strong stainless-steel clip. This keeps the NTC thermistor sensor firmly against the pipe surface and thus ensures a fast-thermal response and accurate temperature monitoring.

In addition, for ease of maintenance, they can be simply unclipped and quickly replaced with another, without the need to drain the water system.

The BTS3 forms part of a large range of temperature sensors for use in HVAC
