The Competition Systems product range of temperature sensors have all been thoroughly tested under the demanding environments of motor sport, many of which are created purely for us and built to our own specification by specialist companies who are leaders in their specific technology.

ATS Air Temperature Sensors - The ATS04 / ATS05 / ATS07 are analogue sensors with a temperature dependant resistor providing a variable resistance across the 2 contacts. Signal is negative temperature coefficient (NTC).

Active device is a thermistor fitted coated leads in a hermetically sealed brass / ABS housing.

WTS Fluid Temperature Sensors - The WTS05 / WTS09 are analogue sensors with a temperature dependant resistor providing a variable resistance across the 2 contacts. Signal is negative temperature coefficient (NTC).

Active device is a thermistor fitted coated leads in a hermetically sealed brass housing.

NTC Miniature - This miniature 0.2% repeatable thermistor is housed in a light weight stainless steel body and potted to Mil specifications. Mounting is via the M6 thread and sealed with a Viton ‘O’ ring.

Suitable for temperature measurement between -40°c to + 150°c

Infra red tyre temperature sensor - Infra red optical sensor used to measure tyre surface temperature when the vehicle is moving. Features include a linear 0-5V output, narrow 14° measuring angle and fully sealed aluminium housing.

Connection can be made to any analogue measuring circuit via a choice of connector types.

Exhaust temperature thermocouple - Reinforced sheathed type K-Type thermocouple for exhaust gas temperature on all types of engines.

Features include a very low response time due to the supported 3.2mm tip, compensated cable and high temperature cable insulation with stainless steel braid.

Type K Thermocouple - This high quality stainless steel thermocouple features a high temperature glass reinforced extension cable with a 3.2mm ungrounded hot junction.

Supplied complete with a resin filled miniature type K connector and spring strain relief for the cable entry.

Thermocouples may be measured directly using any of the MM range of TCK capture CAN modules or by using a standard 0-5V input channel when combined with the CS082/CS083 amplifier.

Brake disc temperature thermocouple - Rubbing thermocouple designed specifically to monitor brake disc temperatures, the design features a fully floating stainless steel shoe onto which a miniature type K thermocouple is bonded.

The spring pressure setting may be adjusted by means of the set screw and lock nut. Grounded hot junction available on request.

Data sheet - Brake disc thermocouple

Type K thermocouple amplifier - This miniature device is able to convert the signal from any type K ungrounded thermocouple into a linear 0-5v output. Only a simple 2-point line calibration is then necessary within the logging system for an output in deg C.

Low current consumption means that multiple devices may be powered by the same Vref supply.
