QAP22 with ARG22.2 QAP22 with ARG22.1 QAP22
Cable temperature sensor QAP22
Use
The cable temperature sensor is for use in ventilating and air conditioning plants to
acquire the room temperature or to provide changeover from heating to cooling, or vice
versa.
It is designed for integration in terminal units such as fan coil or induction units.
The sensor can be installed either by the manufacturer of the terminal unit or on site.
Ordering and delivery
When ordering, please give name and type reference of cable temperature sensor and
accessories, if required, for example: Cable temperature sensor QAP22.
The cable temperature sensor is supplied without any mounting accessories. These
must be ordered separately. Mounting accessories are supplied in sets of 20 pieces.
Technical design
The sensor's nickel sensing element acquires the air or medium temperature.
The resistance of the sensing element changes in function of the ambient temperature.
The resistance value is used for further handling by a suitable controller, such as the
RCE9...

Mechanical design
The sensing element is a nickel resistor. It is encapsulated in a metal sleeve so that it is
mechanically and electrically protected. The connecting cable inside the metal sleeve is
provided with a tension relief. The end of the cable is ready prepared for wiring.
To secure the sensor, there are various accessories available.
Type refenece Name
ARG22.1 Changeover mounting kit
For fitting on pipes (pipes of about 13...18 mm dia.),
consisting of holding piece and cable ties (2x)
ARG22.2 Aluminium bar
Consisting of bar with riveted holder and rubber grommet
Engineering notes
The data sheets of the units to which the sensor is wired provide information on wiring
details. The permissible line lengths must be observed.
Fitting notes
The sensor must be able to acquire the air or medium temperature as accurately as
possible. For this reason, it should be fitted in the location specified by the manufactu-
rer of the terminal unit. If there is no such specification, it must be fitted in the return air
flow of the induction or fan coil units where it measures the temperature of the room air
that is drawn in. It should be fitted as high as possible to minimize the floor effect.
The sensor must be protected against heat radiation from the terminal unit.
Its wires are interchangeable.
The mounting accessories are supplied with mounting instructions.
