Cruisair 10K Temperature Sensor | Aluminum Housing Thermistor for Marine HVAC Systems

The Cruisair 10K Temperature Sensor is a high-precision, epoxy-encapsulated thermistor housed in a durable aluminum casing. Designed for use in marine HVAC systems, this sensor provides accurate temperature readings, fast response times, and enhanced protection against mechanical stress and vibration. With a nominal resistance of 10k ohms at 25°C, it is a reliable component for use in Cruisair and Dometic air conditioning systems, ensuring smooth temperature monitoring and system performance.

This particular model is the optional thin sensor that comes with select Cruisair systems. It is intended for use in protected environments where direct water exposure or constant humidity is not an issue. While its aluminum housing offers excellent thermal conductivity, it is not recommended for applications with condensing humidity or continuous water contact, as moisture may affect its performance over time.

The brass enclosure used in many similar sensors offers enhanced heat transfer and fast thermal response, but this aluminum version balances cost-efficiency with effective functionality in most dry-area HVAC installations. It is particularly suited for cabin temperature sensing, evaporator coil monitoring, and return air measurements in marine air conditioning systems, yachts, boats, and other recreational vessels.

Key Features:

• 10k ohm resistance @ 25°C for precise temperature monitoring

• Aluminum housing with epoxy-encapsulated thermistor

• High vibration resistance – ideal for marine and mobile environments

• Optional thin sensor supplied with certain Cruisair/Dometic units

• Easy integration with SMX II, Elite, and Passport I/O control systems

• Designed for marine AC applications, HVAC servicing, and system upgrades

Applications & Benefits:

This sensor is frequently used in:

• Cruisair marine AC diagnostics and temperature control

• Dometic HVAC maintenance and sensor replacement

• Marine climate systems on boats, yachts, and commercial vessels

• Air handler and evaporator coil temperature monitoring

• General-purpose HVAC temperature sensing applications

Upgrade or replace your old or faulty marine temperature sensor with this Cruisair 10K ohm thermistor to ensure accurate system operation and energy efficiency. Trusted by marine professionals and HVAC technicians, this sensor is a vital part of any marine air conditioning repair toolkit.
