Product Overview

NTCRP Series Glass-encapsulated Radial Lead

The NTCRP series is a small and highly precise temperature sensor with a high degree of versatility, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 200℃, and housed in a PPS resin case. While thermocouples are sometimes used as the temperature sensor, the NTCRP series, which utilizes small and inexpensive NTC thermistors, is ideal for temperature control in applications such as automotive drive motors and industrial servo motors. The robust PPS case is a highly reliable product that can be used without issue even in high-temperature oil and vibration-heavy environments.

What is an NTC Thermistor?

An NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor is a semiconductor ceramic that exhibits a logarithmic decrease in resistance with increasing temperature.
It is widely used as a temperature sensor in various fields such as automotive, industrial equipment, home appliances, and medical devices where temperature detection is required.

NTCRP Series Product Overview

This product is a glass-encapsulated NTC thermistor sealed in a PPS case. The case at the tip of the product has been made as compact as the smallest in the industry by resin injection molding. Depending on the environment/shape of the mounting location, you can choose from two types: rectangular type and cylindrical type. The rectangular type is suitable for mounting on flat surfaces such as square wires for motors and busbars, while the cylindrical type is ideal for wrapping round copper wires into bundles. If you have any questions about the installation method, please feel free to contact us, and our experienced technical staff will propose the optimal mounting solution for you.
