Description
Introduction
When choosing between a fixed room Sensor and a freely suspended measuring solution, measuring position, cable reach, and the Sensor element used are decisive. The Thermokon RPF40 NTC10k hanging Sensor combines a passive NTC10k element with a white connection cable of 6 meters. As a result, this black temperature Sensor is suitable when temperature must be measured at a specific suspended position. The RPF40 is part of the Thermokon family for sensors and controllers and operates within a range of -35 to +90 °C.
Key features
- Measures temperature with a passive NTC10k Sensor element for connection to suitable control technology.
- The white 6-meter cable provides flexibility in determining the desired measuring location.
- The black Sensor head with a diameter of 40 mm forms a compact suspended design.
- Operates within a temperature range of -35 to +90 °C.
- Delivers a typical accuracy of ±0.2 K at 25 °C; take into account the influence of the connection cable length.
- With IP30, the Sensor is intended for a suitable indoor installation.
Applications
This suspended Sensor can be used in HVAC systems and building management systems where temperature information is fed to a suitable controller. The 6-meter cable makes it possible to position the Sensor head at a distance from the connection point. This is for example relevant in rooms where the measuring point is not directly next to the control equipment.
The RPF40 can also be a targeted solution for renovation or expansion work when a passive NTC10k temperature Sensor is required. Always check in advance the required input and installation environment of the existing controller. Also view the range of temperature sensors and room sensors.

Frequently asked questions
Which Sensor element does the Thermokon RPF40 NTC10k hanging Sensor use?
This version uses a passive NTC10k Sensor element. Therefore, match the Sensor to a controller or input intended for NTC10k.
How long is the connection cable?
The hanging Sensor is supplied with a white 6-meter connection cable.
For which temperature range is this model specified?
The specified operating temperature range runs from -35 to +90 °C.
What does the IP30 degree of protection mean?
IP30 indicates the product’s degree of protection. Before installation, assess whether this protection matches the conditions at the intended location.
Does the cable affect measurement accuracy?
The typical accuracy is ±0.2 K at 25 °C and is temperature-dependent. According to the product specification, it also depends on the length of the connection cable.
