Sensors data

I came across a sensor that I have never seen before, the wires colors were green, brown and white.

Doe's anyone have a clue?

A sensors table that have that information will help a lot.

Thanks.

Is this any help - three wire sensor.

Thanks Brian,

I have seen that page.

Its the strange wire's color that confuses me, never came across such colors before.

I have seen in the past a large color code table but can't remember where.

could be wrong but i'm sure carrier does a sensor with that wiring 10k i believe

Hi Chemi

That sounds like a Dixell transducer, if my memory is right;

Brown is feed
white is output
green is ground?

Hi Chemi,
have you tested with an ohm meter, and what was the reaction to temp / pressure changes, try the RS web site perhaps.

Thanks guys,

Its a very old system, I have measured the resistance and it was 106 Ω, so it looks like PT100 but the colors bother me.

RS is good idea, I will have a look.
