Product Description

Product Description

The A/100 and A/1K Series temperature sensors incorporate a Class A,
Thin Film Platinum RTD sensor which conforms to DIN-IEC-751
platinum RTD standards. These sensors are available in either two or
three-wire configurations, incorporating high accuracy and
interchangeability throughout a wide operating temperature range.

These units are offered in Room, Room with Set Point, Room with
Override, Room with Setpoint and Override, and Room with Setpoint,
Override, and RJ11 Jack, Stainless Steel Duct and Duct without Box,
Immersion, Stainless Plate, Raw, Bendable Copper / Continuous Element
and Stainless Steel Rigid Averaging, Strap-On, Bullet Probe and Outdoor
Air Configurations.

All ACI Room sensors may be ordered with an optional setpoint (see
chart on the following page), override, or
RJ12 communication jack with terminal blocks, for remote programming.
These units are also available with a 1/8" RS232 Stereo Jack.

All ACI Temperature Sensors have a limited five year warranty.
