SG303 - AMETHERM

SG303 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended soldering temperature and time for the SG303?
  The recommended soldering temperature is 260°C (500°F) for 3-5 seconds. It's essential to follow proper soldering techniques to avoid damaging the thermistor.
• Can the SG303 be used in high-vibration or high-shock applications?
  Yes, the SG303 is designed to withstand high-vibration and high-shock environments. However, it's crucial to ensure proper mounting and strain relief to prevent mechanical damage.
• How does the SG303 perform in high-humidity or wet environments?
  The SG303 has a moisture-resistant coating, but it's not fully waterproof. It can operate in humid environments, but prolonged exposure to water or high-pressure washes may affect its performance and longevity.
• What is the recommended wire size and material for connecting the SG303?
  A 24 AWG or 26 AWG wire with a Teflon or Kapton insulation is recommended for connecting the SG303. This ensures reliable connections and minimizes thermal conductivity.
• Can the SG303 be used for high-temperature applications above 150°C (302°F)?
  While the SG303 can operate up to 150°C (302°F), it's not recommended for continuous use above 125°C (257°F). Prolonged exposure to high temperatures may affect its accuracy and lifespan.
