  • Temperature sensor
    Patent number: 8734012
    Abstract: A temperature sensor includes a plastic bottom shell, a plastic cap mating the plastic shell, and a temperature responsive element mounted to the plastic cap and received in a cavity of the plastic bottom shell. The temperature responsive element is positioned in the plastic bottom shell by the cap. An insulating coating is applied to the temperature responsive element. The insulating coating and the plastic bottom shell provide dual electrical insulation for the temperature responsive element.

  • Temperature sensing of flowing liquid
    Patent number: 6234670
    Abstract: Apparatus for sensing the temperature of a flowing liquid includes a molded plastic fitting having a stream divider extending across a liquid flow passage. A temperature sensor encapsulated in the stream divider senses the temperature of a liquid stream flowing through the passage as the stream is split to flow past the stream divider.
