Thermistor Temperature Sensors – The thermistors used
with the DXM2 are NTC (negative temperature coeffi cient)
type. Table 7 shows the replacement part numbers for
the LT1 and LT2 thermistors. The sensors have a 1%
tolerance and follow the characteristics shown in ‘1%
Sensor Calibration Points Table’. The ‘Nominal resistance at
various temperatures Table’ shows the nominal resistance
at any given temperature and can be used for fi eld service
reference. The sensor will use a minimum of 24 awg wire.

Example: See images 4 and 5 on previous page.
If your temperature reading is 71.2 with 11.07 ohms, your
sensor is good.
