Frequently asked questions
Is this a genuine replacement for the original part?
Yes, the RPI PCT063 Thermistor Assembly is specifically designed as a direct OEM replacement (OEM Part #001340) for the Pelton & Crane Sentry (A7) Autoclave and Sterilizer. It is manufactured to maintain the original equipment’s performance specifications.
Is this thermistor built to withstand harsh sterilization environments?
Absolutely. It features a durable 1/4” MPT stainless steel body, specifically engineered to provide the environmental resistance required for high-stress sterilization conditions.
Does it offer precise temperature monitoring capabilities?
Yes, this assembly is built for high accuracy. It features a precise 1 Million Ohm rating at 25°C, ensuring it provides reliable temperature data to your unit’s Solid State Controller.
Will the wiring be long enough for installation?
Yes, the assembly comes equipped with 24 inches of wiring, providing plenty of length for flexible and convenient installation within the equipment chassis.
Is this a brand-new, unused component?
Yes, this is a Factory New component. By choosing a brand-new part rather than a refurbished one, you ensure peak performance, reliability, and maximum longevity for your sterilizer.
Is this part compatible with my Sentry (A7) sterilizer?
Yes, the RPI PCT063 is explicitly compatible with the Pelton & Crane Sentry (A7) model. It is designed to function as the primary temperature sensor for the unit’s Solid State Controller.
Are there other components needed to make this work?
This unit is the dedicated thermistor assembly and connects directly to the Solid State Controller. While this part is essential for temperature regulation, please note that if your controller itself needs replacing, RPI offers a separate component for that (RPI Part #PCT061).
Does the stainless steel construction prevent corrosion?
The use of a stainless steel body is a deliberate design choice to enhance durability. It offers superior resistance to the heat and moisture inherent in autoclave environments, helping to prevent corrosion and maintain signal integrity over time.
Why is the 1M ohm rating at 25°C important?
The resistance rating is critical for the calibration of the Solid State Controller. Because this part is rated exactly to the OEM standard, it ensures your sterilizer receives accurate temperature readings, which is vital for the safety and effectiveness of the sterilization cycle.
Is this part reliable for ongoing maintenance?
Yes, this assembly is an essential component for routine maintenance. By adhering to OEM specifications with high-quality materials like the stainless steel MPT body, it helps you maintain the long-term reliability of your Pelton & Crane sterilization equipment.
