Johnson Controls TE-6316P-1 Temperature Sensor

The Johnson Controls TE-6316P-1 is a high-precision 1k ohm Nickel averaging sensor designed for accurate air temperature monitoring in large HVAC ducts. Featuring a 17-foot flexible averaging probe, this unit is engineered to eliminate the reading errors typical of single-point sensors by providing a true representative average across the duct's cross-section. The element is housed in a rigid thermoplastic conduit box with an integrated 1/2-14 NPT female thread, ensuring a secure and streamlined connection to electrical conduit systems. This duct averaging temperature sensor utilizes a stable 1000 ohm Nickel RTD (Ref. 70?F) element, delivering consistent resistance-based output as a critical input for Building Automation Systems (BAS). The copper capillary probe is both durable and flexible, allowing for easy installation using standard duct mounting clips. For contractors and technicians, the TE-6316P-1 is a go-to solution for managing stratification issues in air handling units, ensuring reliable data for precise environmental control.

• Comprehensive Coverage: The 17' averaging probe is ideal for large air handlers, providing 1 foot of sensing element for every square foot of duct area to mitigate stratified air pockets.
• Durable Construction: Features a noncorrosive PVC enclosure and a robust copper sensing element to withstand demanding mechanical environments.
• Standardized Integration: The 1k ohm nickel RTD curve is widely compatible with most Johnson Controls and third-party controllers utilizing a 1000-ohm reference.
• Installation Efficiency: Includes a thermoplastic conduit box and integrated adaptor, reducing the need for additional fittings during field wiring.

What is the resistance of the TE-6316P-1 at specific temperatures?
The sensor uses a Nickel-Iron Balco element with a reference resistance of 1000 ohms at 70?F (21?C), with a sensitivity of approximately 3 ohms per degree Fahrenheit.

How should the 17-foot probe be mounted to ensure accurate readings?
For optimal HVAC duct temperature averaging, use element holders (like the TE-6001-8) to zig-zag the probe across the duct, ensuring it covers the entire airflow path without exceeding a 3-inch minimum bend radius.

Is this sensor suitable for plenum environments?
While the standard plastic cover is included, the unit can meet many plenum requirements when the thermoplastic cover is replaced with a compatible metal cover (TE-6001-13).
