- Application
With outstanding accuracy and fail-safe operation, they
have a wide range of applications in both automotive
and industrial markets.
Industrial applications:
Overheating protection
Protection for power supplies
Process temperature control
Exhaust control
Color coding of leads, according to the Toaster control
SIEMENS standards: Temperature compensation for microprocessors
AWG24, white=minus
AWG24, brown=plus Automotive applications:
or: Oil temperature
AWG24, yellow=minus Oil level
AWG24, green=plus Water temperature
Diesel injection
KTY - screw in sensor Transmission
Engine coolant
Engine air
Air conditioning
- General function
The silicon temperature sensors in the KTY84-1-series
have a nearly linear, positive temperature coefficient of
resistance over the complete wide temperature range.
- Advantages
low cost over a temperature range: -40 ... +300°C
bigger wanted signal than Pt100
low weight
low thermal time constant
very long operation life
high long term stability

Note 1: For temperatures greater than +200°C, a sensor current of I cont = 2mA must be used.
Characteristics:

TC temperature coefficient - 0,62 - %/K
R250/R100 resistance ratio Tamb = +250°C und +100°C 2,111 2,166 2,221
R25/R100 resistance ratio Tamb = 25°C und +100°C 0,595 0,603 0,611
τ thermal time constant (Note 1) In still air - 20 - s
In still liquid (note 2) - 1 - s
In flowing liquid (note 2) - 0,5 - s
Note:
1. The thermal time constant is the time taken for the sensor to reach 63.2% of the total temperature difference. For
example, if a sensor with a temperature of 25°C is moved to an environment with an ambient temperature of
100°C, the time of the sensor to reach a temperature of 72.4°C is the thermal time constant.
T63.2% = 25°C + 0.632 * (100°C - 25°C)= 72.4°C
