CTAS®-T (Wide Range Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor)
Application
This is an exhaust gas temperature sensor which uses a perovskite type ceramic thermistor device, enabling it to detect temperatures over a wide range from low temperature to 900℃. It has high resistance to heat and also shape design flexibility, so it can be installed on the exhaust pipe or the catalyst case. In addition to protection of the turbocharger, catalyst, and so on, by monitoring the exhaust temperature, this sensor is also used for control of the DPF and the NOx catalyst, and helps to reduce fuel consumption and clean the exhaust gas.
Features
- Can measure the exhaust gas temperature over a wide range from 100℃ to 900℃. In addition, a new type of sensor that can measure temperatures from ‐40℃ to 900℃ in order to cope with the OBD demand from
‐40℃ in the North American market is currently being developed. - Quick response is realized by the use of a small device and the slim design of the temperature sensing section.
- Reduced weight due to miniaturization of parts
- Long-term reliability due to the use of an integrated pressed metal tube
- Realization of high vibration resistance due to packing of powder near the thermistor device
