Johnson Controls TE-6000-2 Sensing Element

The Johnson Controls TE-6000-2 is a precision 500 Ohm Nickel Sensing Element engineered for reliable temperature monitoring in commercial HVAC and Building Automation Systems (BAS). This two-wire resistive temperature device (RTD) features a high-purity nickel film that provides a linear response to thermal changes, specifically calibrated with a reference resistance of 500 ohms at 70?F (21?C). With a strict ? 1 % resistance tolerance, this element ensures accurate data acquisition for controllers and analog inputs, minimizing drift in sensitive applications. The TE-6000-2 is frequently utilized in strap-on or immersion configurations when paired with compatible TE-6001 hardware assemblies, offering a sensing range of -50 to 250?F (-46 to 121?C). Designed for compatibility with legacy and modern Johnson Controls electronic modules, it utilizes a 1.5 ohm per ?F temperature coefficient for consistent performance. Field installation is streamlined via two wire leads (18 AWG), making it a standard choice for contractors performing maintenance on existing sensor arrays.

• High Accuracy: Maintains ? 1 % resistance tolerance at 70?F, ensuring precise feedback for tighter setpoint control.
• Broad Operating Range: Rated for temperatures between -50 to 250?F, covering HVAC applications from refrigeration to heating.
• Robust Nickel Element: Features a positive temperature coefficient that is more durable and responsive than standard thermistors in industrial environments.
• Modular Compatibility: Designed for easy integration with TE-6001 hardware for duct, immersion, or well-insertion mounting.
• Standardized Output: The 500 Ohm Nickel signal is the industry standard for a wide range of legacy building automation controllers.

Is the TE-6000-2 compatible with controllers requiring a 1k Ohm Nickel input?
No, this model is a 500-ohm element. For 1,000-ohm applications, you would typically use the TE-6000-1 or TE-6000-10. Always verify the controller's input requirements before installation.

Does this element require field calibration?
No, the Johnson Controls TE-6000-2 is factory-calibrated. If reading errors occur, verify your wiring integrity and check for induced transient voltages from nearby high-voltage lines.

What is the best way to mount this for pipe temperature sensing?
This sensing element is typically used with a strap-on mounting kit or a thermal conductive compound within a TE-6001 hardware assembly to ensure maximum heat transfer from the surface.
