MCS-T100
documentation
The MCS-T100 is an extremely fast acting temperature sensor built for demanding environments. It is ideal for high moisture locations with continuous freeze and thaw cycles. The sensor is potted with a thermally conductive RTV Cure Silicon Adhesive to guarantee durability and response. Its high accuracy allows for interchangeability in the field. The large resistance range allows the use of over 1000' of cable with no noticeable effect. By placing a 100,000 ohm resister between signal and ground the sensor may be used in a three wire input mode.
