RIGID AVERAGING
Four Point Averaging, Thermistor
The ACI Thermistor Rigid Averaging Series features a ¼” Diameter stainless steel sensing
element with two, 12 inch, 22 AWG Etched Teon colored lead wires to dierentiate the
dierent sensor types. The sensors in this series are manufactured with 4 sensing points in
lengths from 12” to 48”. The rigid averaging sensors will provide a better average temperature
of the air inside the duct when compared to a single point sensing element. Each of the
elements is hermetically sealed to prevent any moisture intrusion and includes an integrated
foam pad to properly seal the duct and dampen vibrations when installed. The benets of
using the rigid averaging sensor is that it mounts like a standard single point duct sensor but
includes three additional sensing points for better control. The sensor length should be
determined by the size of your duct. Our standard enclosures include the galvanized junction
box “-GD” or plastic duct enclosure “-PB” with the hinged cover depending on your preference.
This series can be ordered with optional NEMA/IP rated weather proof enclosures as referenced in the ordering grid.
Applications: Air Handlers, Roof Top Units, Mixed Air/Discharge/Supply/Return Air Temperature Monitoring, Data Centers, Hospitals
