Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of temperature sensors, in particular to a high-precision NTC temperature sensor for large commercial water heaters. Background Art

[0002] Temperature sensor refers to a sensor that can sense temperature and convert it into a usable output signal. Temperature sensor is the core part of temperature measuring instruments and there are many varieties. According to the measurement method, it can be divided into two categories: contact type and non-contact type. According to the sensor material and electronic component characteristics, it can be divided into two categories: thermal resistor and thermocouple.

[0003] Therefore, in the water heater, the temperature of the hot water in the water heater is measured by using a temperature sensor, and a signal is output to transmit the temperature information. However, water vapor is generated when the water heater discharges water. If the place is poorly ventilated, the environment becomes humid. If it is in a humid environment for a long time, the connection between the sensor and the water heater will be corroded, causing the sensor to be disassembled for replacement or maintenance.
