ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR


    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      A004YK6E03
      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 10°C (50°F) 3.00 to 3.73 kΩ
      1 - 2 15°C (59°F) 2.45 to 2.88 kΩ
      1 - 2 20°C (68°F) 1.95 to 2.30 kΩ
      1 - 2 25°C (77°F) 1.60 to 1.80 kΩ
      1 - 2 30°C (86°F) 1.28 to 1.47 kΩ
      1 - 2 35°C (95°F) 1.00 to 1.22 kΩ
      1 - 2 40°C (104°F) 0.80 to 1.00 kΩ
      1 - 2 45°C (113°F) 0.65 to 0.85 kΩ
      1 - 2 50°C (122°F) 0.50 to 0.70 kΩ
      1 - 2 55°C (131°F) 0.44 to 0.60 kΩ
      1 - 2 60°C (140°F) 0.36 to 0.50 kΩ

      Note


      • Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensor may change the resistance value.

      • When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.

      Tech Tips

      As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).

      If the resistance is not as specified, replace the room temperature sensor.
