FRP2 Exposed Tip Temperature Sensor

The FRP2 sensor design uses a glass bead NTC thermistor held in place in a high-temperature metal/fibreglass sleeve assembly.  The exposed tip helps to minimise thermal delay and so can be used to measure fast-changing air temperatures.

The diagram shows a single side mounting version but for high volume appliance applications this could be modified to suit the product design.  Integral connectors can also be supplied to maximise product assembly efficiency.
