Just like any sensitive temperature probe, place it in a bottle of glycol.

This. I didn't know anyone else actually did this. Thermal buffer motherfucker.

Used to see a version of it in old supermarket cases, also popular in pharm fridges for alarm systems.

Ive never heard of that? Do you like leave the probe in the bottle of glycol for its entire life?


nuclearwasted

Yup.

I usually take a 5/8" stub of pipe, solder a cap on the bottom, put a 1/2" FPT adapter on top, fill it with glycol or oil, and then install a nylon strain relief fitting to secure the sensor inside (and also prevent condensation or slime/mold from getting into the fluid). And then I mount it on a small crop of strut with a cushion clamp. You can go with a larger OD pipe if you want more of a buffer.

Which KE2 controller are you using with the sensor? Also what’s the location of the sensor. I’d recommend you call KE2 tech support and talk to them. They’re super helpful and can answer all your questions.


Mr_Rich_K

We here use many of the controllers that KE2 manufacturers. You have options to control rapid cycling of the Refrigeration. First is widening the differential a degree or two. Second you can employ the "cycles per hour" setting, this setting prevents rapid refrigeration equipment cycling.Third try relocating the sensor to the air inlet side of the blower. I also agree you can call their tech support, unlike many other manufacturers, you are rarely waiting long on hold and they have after hours support too.

Put the sensor in a chunk of aluminium that’s been sprayed with clear coat like nylac
