The Maxitrol TS114B Temperature Sensor is a critical component for Selectra Series 14 gas flame modulation systems, specifically engineered for high-performance discharge air monitoring. This OEM discharge air temperature sensor is calibrated for a precise sensing range of 120-170 degrees F, making it the industry standard for direct-fired make-up air unit applications. Designed to be installed within a mixing tube assembly (such as the MT1 series), the TS114B converts thermal data into a reliable electrical signal for the Maxitrol A1014 amplifier. This allows for instantaneous response and continual adjustment of modulator-regulator valves, effectively replacing outdated mod motors and butterfly valves. Integrating this sensor ensures stable gas-fired temperature control and optimal combustion efficiency. For accurate operation, the temperature selector must have a matching 120-170°F range. Ensure the sensor is located in the discharge air stream where a representative average temperature can be maintained to prevent hunting or erratic burner cycles. Key Benefits Precision Modulation: Engineered for the Selectra Series 14 to provide seamless communication with electronic amplifiers and modulating gas valves. Optimized Sensing Range: Specifically calibrated for 120-170 degrees F, ideal for specialized heating and industrial process requirements. Rugged Reliability: Designed for stable, repeatable performance in harsh HVACR environments, minimizing discharge air sensor troubleshooting. Direct Compatibility: Built for use with HVAC mixing tubes to ensure the thermistor is protected while sampling a consistent airflow cross-section. Simple Integration: Features standard screw terminals for straightforward field replacement or new system installations in gas-fired equipment. Common Questions Is the TS114B compatible with existing Maxitrol amplifiers? Yes, it is designed to work with the A1014 and AD1014 series amplifiers. However, you must verify that your remote temperature selector (such as the TD114B) is also calibrated for the 120-170°F range to ensure system accuracy. Why is my burner hunting or the temperature fluctuating? Fluctuations often occur if the discharge air temperature sensor is placed in an area with erratic air patterns or if it is not properly seated in the mixing tube. Troubleshooting should include checking for induced voltage if control wires are run near high-voltage lines. Can the TS114B handle different fuel gases? The sensor itself is non-gas-contact, but it is part of a system compatible with natural gas, LP gas, and air mixtures. Its primary role is monitoring air temperature to signal the gas modulation components. Disclaimer: While we strive for 100% accuracy, product data and specifications are subject to change.
