  • Return bend temperature sensor
    Patent number: 6814486
    Abstract: A return bend temperature sensor configured to mount on a curved section of a tube. The sensor comprises a clip, the clip having a resilient arm with a contour for fitting over a curved section of pipe, and a mounting well for holding a thermal sensing device such as a thermistor, resistance temperature detector or thermocouple. The thermal sensing device is fitted into the mounting well with a thermally conductive epoxy. The outer surface of the clip is covered with molded plastic such that the clip can easily side over and grasp a curved section of tube commonly found in the return coil of a refrigeration coil.
