AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Automatic Air Conditioning System) - Cooling Box Sensor Circuit |
DESCRIPTION
The No. 3 cooler thermistor is installed on the evaporator in the cooling box unit to detect the cooled air temperature that has passed through the evaporator and control the cooling box. It sends appropriate signals to the air conditioning amplifier assembly (for cool box). The resistance of the No. 3 cooler thermistor changes in accordance with the cooled air temperature that has passed through the evaporator. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.The air conditioning amplifier assembly (for cool box) applies voltage (12 V) to the No. 3 cooler thermistor and reads voltage changes as the resistance of the No. 3 cooler thermistor changes.

|
30°C (86°F)
| 1.11 to 1.32 kΩ
|
- NOTICE:
- Even slightly touching the sensor may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the sensor.
- When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.
- HINT:
- As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
