Waterproof Temperature Sensors
For an ultra-reliable, waterproof temperature sensor with IP67 or IP68 integrity, then look no further than our range of TPE-encapsulated sensors. These over-moulded NTC Thermistor probes use the same TPE moulding material as the integral lead-wire’s insulation. By using double-insulated or single-insulated TPE cable, a true waterproof seal is created by the fusion of the two insulating materials making the sensors suitable for direct immersion in the media being measured. This makes them ideal for refrigeration, air-conditioning, underfloor heating and heat pumps, solar and other green energy solutions.
Our IP67 and IP68 waterproof sensors can be fitted with any NTC Thermistor from our AP-2, AT-2, ATCD, NT-4 or SP series ranges. From this very wide range of R25 and B values, we can match or fine-tune the sensor specification to meet your application requirements. Also Pt100, Pt500 or Pt1000 RTD elements are now available in IP67 or IP68 versions. ATC Semitec now stock the YAGEO NEXENSOS EC3032 an IP68 rated RTD temperature sensor
Cable lengths can be supplied from 100 mm up to 10 metres long so that you have a single uninterrupted sensor cable helping to ensure product integrity. Metal tips or stainless-steel housings can be added to help increase their physical robustness where an abrasive sensing environment could be encountered. For even harsher environments, shielded cable options and armoured cabling is also available.

Precision NTC Thermistors
Our range of high precision NTC thermistors enable engineers to accurately control operating temperatures which is critical in many product applications within the automotive, home automation and medical device industries.
Precision thermistors are highly accurate with 0.5% resistance tolerances (or better) offering long term stability and control; their RT curve interchangeability eliminates the need for individual circuit calibration. Available with ±0.2°C (0-70°C) accuracy or better, they can operate up to 150°C and so are also suitable for use in automotive applications. With a wide range of R25 resistance values, B values and format types, please call us about specific requirements.
RTD Temperature Sensor Assemblies
YAGEO Nexensos not only supply a wide range of platinum RTD elements but also temperature sensor assemblies in various formats. Of all the numerous sensor designs, two of the most interesting are as follows;
EC3032 temperature sensors are high integrity, encapsulated RTD sensors primarily designed for use in e-vehicle e-motor applications. Their small size and IP68 insulation rating makes them ideal for use in the e-motor stator windings and they are also impervious to varnish ingress and other fluids such as oil or grease. Using a Pt1000B element as standard, the 410mm PTFE long leads make this a very versatile sensor that can be used from -50°C to +200°C.
Our PCB RTD temperature sensors are basically chip RTD elements pre-soldered onto printed circuit boards (PCBs) originally designed for use in domestic calorimeters. The PCB has a meandering, zigzag circuit path to help minimise heat loss from the RTD to improve temperature measurement accuracy. These RTD PCB sensors are sometimes preferred to NTC versions, as their inherent long-term stability is extremely important when accurately measuring and apportioning consumer energy consumption in district heating systems.
Flexible Lead NTC Thermistors
Flexible Thermistors are NTC thermistors which have flexible insulation to help simplify product assembly or provide unique monitoring solutions. Using flexible thermistors will help to speed up assembly and thus minimise production handling costs. Their small bead size give faster, accurate sensing and/or temperature control in numerous domestic and commercial applications.
