Johnson Controls TE-636AM-2 Temperature Sensor

The Johnson Controls TE-636AM-2 is a professional-grade 10k ohm Type II thermistor sensor specifically engineered for precision well mount temperature sensing in commercial HVAC systems. This immersion temperature sensor features a robust 6-inch probe length, making it ideal for monitoring fluid temperatures within piping systems or storage tanks when paired with a compatible thermowell. Built with a durable metal enclosure, the TE-636AM-2 is designed to meet plenum requirements and withstand the rigors of mechanical room environments. As part of the TE-6300 series, this unit provides a reliable resistance output that ensures high-accuracy data for building automation systems (BAS) and HVAC temperature control. For contractors performing retrofits or new installations, the 10k ohm Type II curve offers broad compatibility with most industry-standard controllers, minimizing the need for complex calibration. The TE-636AM-2 6-inch probe uses a threaded well sensor holder for secure seating, ensuring stable thermal contact and rapid response times for critical system loops.

Key Benefits

• Optimized Compatibility: Utilizes a standard 10k ohm Type II thermistor element, ensuring seamless integration with Johnson Controls Metasys and other leading BAS platforms.
• Industrial Durability: Features a metal enclosure that protects internal wiring and meets strict safety codes for installation in return air plenums.
• Precise Monitoring: The 6-inch stainless steel probe allows for deep immersion into fluid streams, providing more accurate core temperature readings than surface-mount alternatives.
• Simplified Installation: Designed specifically for well insertion temperature sensor applications, featuring a dedicated mounting style that reduces field labor and prevents orientation errors.

Common Questions

What is the resistance value of the TE-636AM-2?
This model utilizes a 10,000 ohm (10k) Type II NTC thermistor. Resistance decreases as temperature rises, following the standard Type II curve common in HVAC applications.

Does this sensor include the thermowell?
No, the TE-636AM-2 is the sensor and enclosure assembly only. The compatible Johnson Controls TE-6300W series thermowell must be ordered separately based on your specific piping and pressure requirements.

Can this probe be used in duct applications?
While technically possible, this model is factory-configured for well mount installation. For dedicated air-stream monitoring, a duct-specific probe from the TE-6300 series is recommended to ensure proper mounting and airflow exposure.
