ETC 6086
Air Temp
The ETC6086 monitors the ambient air temperature around combustion or plantroom equipment. Feeding directly into the ETC6000 controller, it supports environmental compensation for burner control, aiding safety, compliance, and thermal stability.
Product specifics
The ETC6086 is a small, robust ambient temperature sensor that plays a supporting role in the ETC6000 burner management ecosystem. It is designed to measure the air temperature in boiler rooms, enclosures, or around combustion equipment, providing valuable data that can be used for temperature compensation, ventilation control, or system diagnostics.
Its compact and lightweight housing is IP65-rated, allowing it to be installed in demanding plant environments without risk of dust or moisture ingress. With a sensing range from 0 to 60°C and a ±2°C accuracy, it provides sufficient resolution for most ambient monitoring needs in combustion systems.
This sensor connects to the ETC6000 via CANBus and transmits its readings in real time. The controller can then use this input to adjust combustion parameters—such as fan speed, fuel-air ratio, or trim settings—or to initiate a shutdown if ambient conditions exceed safe limits. It plays a vital role in systems where air temperature has a measurable effect on combustion performance or equipment reliability.
Thanks to its compact form and standardised wiring, the ETC6086 is easy to fit into both new builds and retrofits, adding an extra layer of intelligence to ETC-controlled burner systems without increasing system complexity.
