Johnson Controls TE-6000-5 Sensing Element
The Johnson Controls TE-6000-5 Sensing Element is a field-proven 50 Ohm nickel element designed specifically for discharge air sensing and readjustment applications. Engineered for technicians requiring a reliable HVAC temperature sensor, this unit features a ?2% resistance tolerance at 70?F (21?C). It is frequently utilized in series with a 1,000 ohm room sensor to provide precise inputs for electronic temperature controllers and building automation systems. Built with a durable copper probe and 18 AWG two-wire leads, the TE-6000-5 offers a positive temperature coefficient of 0.15 ohms/F?, ensuring stable performance across its operating range of -50 to 250?F. Its 20:1 ratio capability makes it indispensable for duct discharge air sensing where standard 1,000 ohm elements are not suitable. For professionals managing commercial HVAC systems, this element provides the exact resistance profile needed for compatibility with legacy Johnson Controls series hardware and modern analog inputs.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Optimized for Readjustment: Specifically designed for 20:1 ratio applications in discharge air systems.
- Rugged Construction: Features a copper probe and 18 AWG leads for reliable field connection in demanding environments.
- High Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with Johnson Controls electronic controllers and TE-6001 hardware assemblies.
- Positive Temperature Coefficient: Provides a predictable linear resistance increase of 0.15 ohms/F? for accurate tracking.
- Versatile Mounting: Not position-sensitive, allowing for flexible installation in various duct and plenum configurations.
- What is the standard resistance of the TE-6000-5? This is a 50 ohm nickel element at 70?F (21?C), which is one-twentieth the resistance of the standard 1,000 ohm nickel models.
- Which wiring color code identifies this model? The TE-6000-5 is typically identified by a blue color-coded band on the wire leads to prevent installation errors in the field.
- Can this be used for solar or surface sensing? No, this model is specifically for discharge air. Different models like the TE-6000-6 or TE-6000-10 should be used for solar or surface applications respectively.
