AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR (MRD-22-01637-01)

The Ambient Temperature Sensor is a crucial device in transport refrigeration systems that measures the external temperature surrounding the refrigerated unit to help optimize system performance.

• External Temperature Measurement: This sensor monitors the ambient air temperature outside the refrigerated compartment or vehicle.
• System Adjustment: Data from the sensor allows the refrigeration control system to adjust compressor and fan operation based on external conditions, improving efficiency.
• Energy Conservation: By responding to ambient temperature changes, the system can avoid unnecessary cooling, reducing energy consumption.
• Protecting Cargo Quality: Accurate ambient temperature readings help maintain the proper internal temperature for sensitive goods during transit.
• Diagnostic Assistance: The sensor’s data can help detect environmental issues or sensor malfunctions, aiding maintenance efforts.

In summary, the ambient temperature sensor plays a vital role in ensuring efficient and reliable operation of transport refrigeration systems by monitoring external temperature conditions.
