Description The MCS-T100-xx-MIL is an extremely fast acting thermistor packaged in a water tight thin walled nickel coated brass deep drawn tube. The sensor is potted with a thermally conductive RTV cure silicon adhesive to guarantee durability and response. Its high accuracy allows for interchangeability in the field. The large resistance range allows the use of over 1000’ of cable with no noticeable effect. By placing a 100,000 ohm resister between signal and ground the sensor may be used in a three wire input mode. The table below provides a cross reference between °F, ohms, and vdc at a sensor input pin (S1) of an MCS micro controller.
