The thermostat is part of the HVAC system that we can rely on in our smart home. You can find them on the wall as quickly as possible as they stand out and are very easy to reach. The technician will usually program the thermostat manually before you use it to maintain the home temperature as desired. The thermostat has an NTC sensor which allows it to get the best air circulation.
In HVAC systems, NTC sensors are in all applications and equipment including thermostats. NTC sensors can monitor temperature and cut off current to prevent overheating. A working HVAC system will receive a signal that the thermostat in your home becomes too hot or cold. Next, this system will send air circulation to all areas.
NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) will decrease when the temperature rises and vice versa. This temperature detection sensor is very small and can stand alone. You can also combine this sensor with other equipment from the HVAC system in a different container.
NTC sensors have a small size with very fast response, are resistant to shocks, and are quite low cost. Your HVAC system will be more sensitive with high accuracy and stability that you can rely on every time.

Why NTC Sensors are Suitable for Various Industries
All industries that have HVAC systems need NTC sensors. The use of factory machines that occur from Monday to at least Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm will produce extraordinary heat. You need a circuit breaker that prevents the engine from experiencing serious damage due to overheating. The NTC sensor is an important component in your factory machinery.
Meanwhile, extremely hot weather requires a cooling system that is safe and not wasteful. The highly sensitive NTC sensor will be an important component in the thermostat which also regulates the right cold temperature for areas in your home or office.
Well, you probably already know the various advantages of using this very sensitive sensor. Procurement costs are very cheap too and you can buy them individually or in bulk for large installations.
Super Sensitive Sensor
NTC sensor is the most sensitive temperature sensing component which is common in temperature control in the temperature range of -50 OC to 120 OC. The material consists of semiconductor material as a heat-sensitive resistor.
Semiconductor materials such as nickel oxide, manganese oxide, copper oxide, and iron oxide consist of metal oxide granules in tight and dense packages. Therefore, the increase in temperature will cause electrons to jump up into the material’s conductive energy band and the electrical resistance will decrease.
Low Cost with Small Size
The price of one piece of NTC sensor is not even more than 1 dollar and you can use it for accurate temperature sensing. If the NTC sensor is damaged, it will be easy for you to replace it with a new product that you can easily buy.
Easy Use
You can use this small component easily. You can also customize it according to the devices that are quite compatible with it and you can coat it with epoxy.
Remote NTC Sensor on the Thermostat
We usually see NTC sensors on the front of the machine. This makes it easier to detect the temperature as well as the pressure and humidity around the machine. An NTC sensor on today’s thermostat will transmit data wirelessly. Your smartphone will also be able to read it via the cloud function.
You should install the temperature sensor at adult chest height, approximately 50 to 70 centimeters above the floor. This placement ensures accurate readings and makes it a suitable addition to the living room or bedroom.
Then you can pay attention to whether there is a heat source nearby. You need to keep the NTC sensor and thermostat away from stoves, microwaves, and surfaces that don’t have an insulating layer. You can control this remote thermostat device directly via mobile application, remote control, or voice commands via Google.
If any damage to your sensor, your smart thermostat will not be able to detect the temperature accurately. Next, the residential HVAC system gets a response error. Therefore, you can ensure proper thermostat placement and then follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for programming. You can also update the thermostat software regularly. This can control bugs that can have a big impact on its performance.
