The strap-on type sensor has a brass housing that senses the water temperature through
contact with the exterior surface of the pipe. The sensor should be mounted in contact
with the underside of the pipe in order to insure accurate temperature readings. The
sensor assembly is secured to the pipe by using the supplied wire ties to wrap and secure
the sensor to the pipe. Thermal conductive compound is also supplied to insure a good
thermal connection with the pipe. The sensors are supplied with 3 foot long wire leads.
