The CWF series NTC Thermistor Probes from Cantherm are precision sensors designed for accurate temperature measurement and control across a wide range of applications. These probes feature a high-reliability NTC thermistor insulated with heat-conductive, water-resistant materials and potted into various probe bodies for diverse installation needs. They offer excellent tolerance, interchangeability, long-term stability, and fast response times. Available in five basic enclosure styles, including ethoxyline dipped, metal housing, plastic body, sheet metal attachment fixtures, and custom probes, the CWF series is suitable for demanding environments and custom sensing requirements.
