Overview

This single point temperature cable is a perfect match for air temperatures. The internal sensor is thermally coupled to the surrounding stainless steel, providing a fully waterproof housing with rapid temperature response.

The stainless housing also provides excellent temperature and chemical resistance making it suitable for nearly any environment.

The accompanying radiation shield layers additional weathering properties while maintaining excellent air temperature tracking.

The louvered stainless housing and radiation shield protects the internal sensor from the elements to improve temperature tracking accuracy and rapid response.
