De Dietrich 95362446 Sensor KVT 60 L1000

This is a De Dietrich 95362446 sensor, catalogue article 336.208.001, classified under sensor components. Parts of this type are temperature sensing devices used in boiler and burner control systems. Their primary function is to close the control loop by reporting water temperature (flow, return, cylinder) or outdoor temperature to the control board. The board then adjusts modulation, mixing valve position, and burner firing rate accordingly. When selecting a replacement sensor of this class, the key parameters are the resistance characteristic (e.g. 10 kΩ or 12 kΩ at 25 °C), the probe form (immersion pocket, clamp-on, or bare sleeve), cable length, and connector type. An incorrect resistance curve will cause the boiler to modulate wrongly, leading to poor comfort or increased cycling. Mechanical thermostats and limit switches, which also fall under this category, additionally require the correct switching point and reset behaviour (auto or manual). Typical failure modes include a drifting NTC characteristic, a broken or chafed cable, and poor thermal contact between a clamp-on probe and the pipe. Before installation, check the probe seating and ensure the cable is routed clear of hot or moving parts. No compatibility with specific appliance models is stated for this article; verify the required probe form and signal characteristic against the control board’s specification.
