Technical Overview
This range of temperature sensors are used to detect air temperature in ducts (TT-322) and liquid temperature in
pipes (TT-341 & TT-342). Units contain either a high quality thermistor, Nickel or Platinum sensing element.
Duct sensors are supplied with a neoprene gasket to ensure a good seal between the sensor and the duct. A
flange plate is available for adjustment of penetration depth (order as TT-DFP).
Immersion sensors are for direct mounting into the TT-PO range of stainless steel pockets. The TT-342 can also
be used to measure high temperatures in duct above 90°C (194°F) using the optional TT-DFP duct flange plate.
The -CVO active output option combines 4 pre-set ranges and selectable output mode, customised output range
scaling enabling a choice of outputs and ranges on one unit.

The TT-xxx-CVO products referred to in this data sheet meet
the requirements of EU Directive 2004/108/E
† Not available on the TT-341

Installation:
TT-322
1. Select a location in the duct where the sensor probe will give a representative sample of the prevailing air condition.
24mm 33mm
Ø7mm
Mounting Screw
Centers
3. Sensor with optional flange.
If depth adjustment is required, use the TT-DFP. Drill a 7mm (0.28”) diameter hole and use the flange as a
template to mark the hole centres. Drill then using the screws supplied fix to the duct. Insert the probe to the
desired depth and tighten the grub screw.
TT-341
1. Select a location in the system where the liquid is to be measured, install pocket as per datasheet TT-PO.
2. Insert the probe into the pocket and secure with the grub screw provided within the pocket.
3. The TT-341 must be used with a pocket, it is not designed for direct mounting.
TT-342
1. Select a location in the system where the liquid is to be measured, install pocket as per datasheet TT-PO.
Alternatively the TT-342 can be used to measure high temperatures within duct work systems. Install a duct flange
(TT-DFP) as per TT-322 point 3.
2. Insert the probe into the pocket or duct flange and secure with the grub screw provided.
3. Using the main housing as a template mark the hole centres (57mm (2.24”)), drill and fix the housing to a suitable
surface using suitable screws supplied (surface temp. must not exceed 90°C (194°F)).
Common installation:
4. Release the snap-fit lid by gently squeezing the locking tab and feed the cable through the waterproof gland &
terminate the cores at the terminal block (see page 4 for connection details). Leaving some slack inside the unit,
tighten the cable gland onto the cable to ensure water tightness.
5. If the sensor is to be mounted outside, it is recommended that the unit be mounted with the cable entry at the
bottom. If the cable is fed from above then into the cable gland at the bottom, it is recommended that a rain loop
be placed in the cable before entry into the sensor.
6. Snap shut the lid after the connections have been made if IP65 protection is required, secure the lid with two
screws provided.
Connections:
All connections to BEMS controllers, data recorders etc. should be made using screened cable. Normally, the screen should
be earthed at one end only (usually the controller end) to avoid earth hum loops which can create noise. Low voltage signal
and supply cables should be routed separately from high voltage or mains cabling. Separate conduit or cable trays should be
used. Where possible, the controller's earth should be connected to a FUNCTIONAL EARTH, rather than the mains safety
earth. This will provide better immunity to high frequency noise. Most modern buildings have a separate earth for this
purpose.
Passive output:
Connections are made via the 2-way terminal block. Connections for thermistor, platinum and nickel sensing elements are
polarity independent.
Active output:
D (PT100A)
Temp. output
Current output If using in current output mode, the sensor must only be used with a 24Vdc supply. The sensor may be
damaged if supplied with AC.
The selectable output temperature ranges are dependent on sensor type, ambient and application.
