MCS 151 and MCS 152 Temperature Sensors

The MCS 151 and MCS 152 temperature sensors are hermetically sealed and can be used for measuring solid, liquid or gas temperatures. The MCS 151 sensor has a large thermal mass around the sensing element and is suited to measuring average temperatures.

The MCS 152 sensor has a lower thermal mass and is intended for fast response sensing. The temperature sensor may be directly connected to the MCS 120 or MCS 130 range of multi-channel data loggers, which will convert and record the temperature in degrees Celcius.
