Vishay's NTCALUG01T series of high stability lug temperature sensors is suitable for surface temperature sensing applications, especially when a high electrical insulation (rated to 2.7 kV_AC) and good thermal contact with the surface is required. These sensors provide accurate and dependable surface temperature measurement across a wide temperature range and are designed for long-term, stable operation at a peak temperature of 150°C. The NTCALUG01T lug sensors incorporate a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor with two multi-stranded AWG26, 600 V rated, ETFE insulated, silver-plated copper wires mounted inside the barrel of a lug terminal. Mounting of the NTCALUG01T lug sensor can be accomplished by use of a M3.5 (#5 or #6) screw. The NTCALUG01T series is both AEC-Q200 qualified and UL recognized. In addition to the off-the-shelf version, the NTCALUG01T series provides the designer with flexibility through electrical and mechanical customization options including an option for a 150°C rated automotive connector.
