Compressor Exhausted Air Temperature Detection

The exhausted air temperature sensor is mainly installed on the exhaust pipe of the compressor. Usually, an NTC thermistor with a resistance of 50K is selected. By detecting the temperature of the exhaust pipe of the compressor, the opening degree of the expansion valve can be controlled. When the temperature of the exhaust pipe is too high, the compressor is turned off for overheat protection.
