DESCRIPTION
Simarine 5m Temperature Sensor: Precision Monitoring for Marine and RV Systems
Accurate temperature tracking is a critical component of advanced power and fluid management in mobile applications. The Simarine 5m Temperature Sensor delivers precise, real-time thermal data directly to your Simarine monitoring network. Whether you are outfitting a caravan, camper trailer, or marine vessel, maintaining optimal operating temperatures for your equipment extends its lifespan and enhances safety. This high-quality probe seamlessly integrates with Simarine modules, providing reliable readings for batteries, refrigeration units, ambient cabin spaces, and engine compartments.
High-Accuracy NTC Thermistor Technology
At the core of this sensor is an advanced NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor, specifically rated at 5K with a 1% tolerance (3950 beta value). This technical specification ensures the probe delivers highly sensitive and accurate resistance changes in response to temperature fluctuations. In practical terms, this precise accuracy translates to reliable data on your Simarine display. Consistent monitoring allows your system to detect subtle temperature shifts early, helping you avoid critical issues like overheating batteries or underperforming refrigeration units.
Durable and Waterproof Brass Probe
Mobile and off-grid environments expose equipment to challenging conditions, including high humidity, condensation, and occasional water exposure. To combat these elements, the sensor features a fully waterproof housing protecting the internal thermistor. The probe itself is constructed from high-quality brass, a material selected for its excellent thermal conductivity and strong resistance to corrosion. This ensures fast response times to temperature changes while maintaining long-term durability in harsh marine or coastal environments.
Versatile Applications Across Your Vessel or Vehicle
Integrating a dedicated temperature sensor into your system solves multiple monitoring challenges. By attaching the probe to your main battery bank, you can monitor thermal behaviour during heavy charge and discharge cycles, significantly reducing the risk of thermal runaway or capacity degradation. Alternatively, routing the sensor into a 12V or 24V fridge or freezer provides peace of mind that your perishables remain at safe temperatures. It is also an excellent solution for monitoring ambient cabin temperatures or tracking critical engine bay conditions.
Effortless Integration and Installation
Installation is straightforward thanks to the generous 5-metre black insulated cable. This length provides the flexibility required to route the sensor through bulkheads, under floors, or behind cabinetry without the need for additional extensions. The cable terminates in pre-stripped wire ends, allowing for rapid and secure connection to your Simarine shunt or tank module.
