The engine coolant temperature sender, not to be confused with the engine coolant temperature sensor, is located anywhere within the engine cooling system, and contains a thermistor that changes in resistance value as the thermistors ambient temperature changes. The engine coolant temperature sender is fed 12 volts and is typically used in conjunction with a gauge in the instrument cluster to provide a visual representation of the engine coolant temperature condition.

Product Features:

• Tin plated lead frame prevents corrosion and ensures a reliable terminal connection under adverse ambient conditions.
• Lead frame terminal size and location determined using image dimension measuring system or 3D laser scanner.
• Thermally conductive grease within the housing providing the most accurate temperature transfer from the engine to the thermistor.
• Plated brass or aluminum housings to prevent housing corrosion, ensures effective heat distribution to thermal element, and ensure a secure and leak-free thread mount.
• Computer-Aided Design (CAD), laser scanning and 3D printing - utilizing Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA) - in the connector terminal design process ensures speed-to-market and a precise connector fit guaranteed.
