Description
The Tekmar 071 Universal Sensor is a compact, fast-response temperature sensor designed for versatile use in hydronic and HVAC systems. Encased in a corrosion-resistant brass or zinc sleeve, it houses a 10kΩ NTC thermistor that delivers precise temperature readings with ±0.2°C accuracy at 25°C. Its small form factor—just 3/8" in diameter and 3/4" long—makes it ideal for strapping to pipes, embedding in slabs, or mounting in wells to monitor boiler supply, return water, or slab temperatures.
