Fan Drive Control Temperature Sensors
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The Sauer-Danfoss family of analog temperature sensors is designed to operate
in conjunction with Sauer-Danfoss Fan
Drive Control (FDC) electronic modules.
The sensors have been engineered to
provide years of dependable service
while operating in harsh on and off road
environments.
• Integrated connector and sensor
body
• Brass body construction
• Anti-fouling air temperature sensor
design
Two models are available: An air sensor
typically used to measure engine charge
air temperature and a liquid sensor typically used to measure engine coolant or
oil temperature.
• 50° C to 125° C operating temper-
ature range, FDC software confi gurable
TECHNICAL DATA
!
For proper operation, air
temperature sensors must
be mounted at the top of
the manifold pipe with the
sensor tip facing down.
The 1090173 and 1090174 are thermistor-type temperature sensors. (See Table A.)
