ensor Selection – 

USDT 2004 accepts different sensors types. User can 

program a constant temperature instead of a sensor output also.  The 

sensor types are programmed at the factory for thermistor (KTY 10) types. The 
PT 1000 sensor is recommended for high performance collectors such as 
Thermomax systems and will not be damaged during collector stagnation. PT 
1000 works fine in 482 

o

F range and survives up to 572 

o

F temperatures for a 

short period of time. The KTY 10 tank sensor should be used in a conditioned 
environment and will not be permanently damaged up to 360
