BOILER TEMPERATURE SENSOR - UNIVERSAL SENSOR

PRODUCT DATA

KTF 20, DKF 20

FEATURES
Covers the complete temperature range -20...+110 C Usable as boiler or universal sensor

TYPES
KTF 20, with one sensor element DKF 20, with two sensor elements to switch to two separate controllers

SPECIFICATION
Sensor element Resistance Operating range Dimensions (cartridge) Fig. 1. The KTF 20 Boiler Temperature Sensor Electrical connection Protection class NTCthermistor, watertight, cast in sensor cartridge 20 Kohm at 25 C -20...+110 C 6.5 mm , 50 mm long (KTF 20) 2 m cable, 2 core (DKF 20) 2 m cable, 3 core IP 62

APPLICATION
For sliding regulation of boiler temperature. The prevailing boiler temperature must be continually monitored. The KTF 20's sensor cartridge, which is placed in the boiler, serves this purpose. Due to the sensor's wide temperature range (-20...+110 C) and its small measurement scale, it can also be used as a universal sensor, e.g. as a supply temperature sensor.

For technical information on the NTC thermistor, see "Temperature Sensors" (EN0B-0476GE51).

MOUNTING
The best location for measuring the temperature and, therefore, inserting the KTF 20, is the immersion well for boiler temperature displays, boiler thermostat, and safe temperature guard. There is usually space for the KTF 20 sensor in this well (sensor cartridge: 6.5 mm , 50 mm long). In order to have good heat transmission between the sensor cartridge and the immersion well, the contact strip supplied must be inserted along with the cartridge. If there is no space in the well for the KTF 20, another separate well can be used near the aforementioned immersion well.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The temperature sensor's must be in accordance with the overall wiring circuit diagram. The terminals are not polarized; thus, in the event that the wires are mistakenly connected in reverse, no malfunction will occur.

Either the VF 20T, -NT is to be used or only the immersion well of the VF 20T, -NT together with the KTF 20. Again, in order to have sufficient heat transmission, the sensor cartridge of the KTF 20 must be inserted with the contact strip supplied.
