Faulty Temp Sensor

Saturday, October 2nd 2010, 10:49am

I have 3 AC inline inner/outer G 1/4 temperature sensors.

One of them reads 13c and the other 2 read 20c, in a cold loop.

I have emailed my retailer and AC and expect no problems getting a replacement.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if there are any software solutions.
Could is still be reliable with a temp offset setting?

You can't solve that via software. The sensor inside the connector is damaged. Very likely through a too high pressure. Even if you would add the missing 7°C by software you would still get wrong temperatures since the sensor does not work correctly at all - it might even stay at 13°C no matter what the real temperature is.

I haven't received a reply to my email yet.

My retailer suggested I contact you direct and that you (AC) would send me a replacement part.
Is this correct?
