Danfoss 12500120 Brass Sensor Tip for Floor Heating

The Danfoss 12500120 brass sensor tip is a precision-engineered component designed specifically for integration with floor heating temperature sensors. Crafted from high-quality brass, this sensor tip facilitates optimal thermal conductivity, ensuring that the temperature sensor receives accurate readings from the floor structure. It serves as a critical interface between the heating system and the control unit, helping to maintain consistent and efficient climate management in various indoor environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of using this brass sensor tip is its superior thermal transfer capability, which is essential for the precise operation of underfloor heating thermostats. The robust brass construction provides excellent durability and resistance to the conditions typically found within floor screeds, ensuring a long service life. By providing a stable housing for the sensor, it minimizes measurement errors and contributes to the overall energy efficiency of the heating installation, allowing for more accurate temperature regulation.

Suitable for

• Underfloor heating systems in residential buildings
• Commercial floor heating installations
• Replacement of worn or damaged sensor housings
• Integration with compatible Danfoss temperature sensors

When it may not be suitable

This sensor tip is designed specifically for use with compatible Danfoss temperature sensors and may not fit sensors from other manufacturers. It is not intended for use in high-temperature industrial processes or environments where the material might be exposed to corrosive chemicals that could degrade brass.

Key specifications

• Material: High-quality brass
• Function: Thermal contact for floor heating sensors
• Compatibility: Designed for Danfoss floor heating systems
• Application: Embedded in floor screed

How to use

The sensor tip should be installed within the floor structure during the construction or renovation phase, typically placed inside a protective conduit or sensor sleeve. Ensure that the tip is positioned correctly to make firm contact with the floor surface or the screed to allow for accurate temperature detection. Once the sensor is inserted into the tip, connect the wiring to the corresponding thermostat or control unit according to the manufacturer's installation manual for the heating system.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify compatibility with your existing thermostat or sensor model
• Ensure the installation location allows for future access if maintenance is required
• Check that the sensor cable length is sufficient for the intended installation point

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure the sensor tip is fully inserted into the protective sleeve and that there are no air gaps between the tip and the surrounding floor material, as this can lead to inaccurate temperature readings.
