Primarily poised for pool and spa applications, the AquaSense water-temperature sensor promises ease of installation and a fast temperature response time. Housed in a rugged, molded shell, it is compatible with most major pool/spa control systems. Installation requires drilling a 0.25” hole into the PVC piping, inserting the probe, and then using a standard 0.5” wide hose clamp to seal the O-ring onto the pipe.
