Description

This sensor is a waterproof, industrial-grade adaptation of the Maxim Integrated DS18B20 digital temperature sensor. Housed in a sealed stainless steel tube, it provides reliable measurements in environments where moisture, condensation, or immersion is a concern. The 1-Wire communication protocol ensures signal integrity over extended cable runs without analog signal degradation, making it ideal for distributed sensing networks.

The sensor delivers configurable 9 to 12-bit temperature readings, allowing users to balance resolution against conversion time. Its wide supply voltage range of 3.0V to 5.5V ensures compatibility with both 3.3V and 5V logic systems commonly found in development boards and industrial controllers. The PVC-jacketed cable is rated for continuous use below 100°C, while the probe itself can withstand the full sensor range.

Key Features

  • High-accuracy digital temperature sensing with ±0.5°C precision in the -10°C to +85°C range.
  • Durable 304 stainless steel probe construction provides corrosion resistance and waterproof sealing.
  • 1-Wire digital bus interface simplifies wiring and allows multiple sensors to share a single microcontroller pin.
  • Configurable resolution from 9 to 12 bits enables optimization for speed or measurement detail.
  • Broad compatibility with 3.0V to 5.5V logic families, supporting Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and ESP platforms.
  • Crowtail form-factor connector enables plug-and-play use with modular sensor systems.
  • Robust design suitable for HVAC, aquaculture, automotive, and industrial process monitoring.

Applications

  • Remote temperature monitoring in HVAC and refrigeration systems.
  • Liquid temperature sensing in aquaponics, hydroponics, and aquaculture tanks.
  • Environmental data logging for weather stations and soil temperature profiling.
  • Process control and machine condition monitoring in industrial settings.
  • Automotive and mechanical system temperature diagnostics.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for this DS18B20 temperature sensor?

The sensor module operates from 3.0V to 5.5V DC, making it compatible with both 3.3V and 5V microcontroller systems like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and ESP32. Ensure your power supply provides a stable voltage within this range for accurate readings.

How do I connect multiple sensors to a single microcontroller pin?

The DS18B20 uses a 1-Wire communication protocol, which supports a multi-drop bus architecture. You can connect multiple sensors in parallel to a single data pin (with a 4.7kΩ pull-up resistor to VCC). Each sensor has a unique 64-bit ROM address, allowing the microcontroller to query them individually.

Is the stainless steel probe fully waterproof, and what is the cable's temperature limit?

Yes, the stainless steel probe body is sealed and waterproof, suitable for immersion in liquids. The attached cable is jacketed in PVC, which is rated for continuous use at temperatures below 100°C. For higher ambient temperatures, consider using a cable with a higher thermal rating or adding thermal insulation.

What is the accuracy and resolution of the temperature readings?

The sensor provides ±0.5°C accuracy within the -10°C to +85°C range. Its resolution is software-configurable from 9 to 12 bits, corresponding to temperature increments of 0.5°C, 0.25°C, 0.125°C, or 0.0625°C. Higher resolution increases conversion time, up to a maximum of 750ms for 12-bit mode.
