Product Description
The RIFE Standard IAT / Intake Air Temp Sensors are ideal for use within the -10 to 335°F range. These sensors come with ultra - fast response thermistors that are 15 times faster and 3 times more accurate than traditional EFI sensors on the market. Faster response times and accurate readings allow for more precise tune adjustments, ensuring a safer and more reliable tune - up. This IAT sensor is commonly used in naturally aspirated and intercooled turbo or blower cars, but it can also be used in other vehicle applications. It is optimized for high accuracy and resolution in the 0° - 210°F temperature range. Features include a 3/8' NPT thread, a 15x faster response time, 3x more accurate readings, in - house machining and construction, a temperature range of - 10 to 335°F, and a hard anodized CNC machined housing. Note: Unlike most Motion Raceworks products, these sensors, like most electronics, are not 100% Made in the USA. Although we try hard to source all US electronic components, we haven't been able to get everything domestically. If you need a different thread pattern or electrical connection, check out our full line of Air Temp Sensors HERE. The Hi - AT sensor series is typically used for turbo and blower cars as an IAT sensor and for compressor outlet temperature measurement. It can also be used in other vehicle applications that need an extended temperature range and is optimized for accuracy and resolution in the 40° - 485°F temperature range.

So when wiring, the wire color or pin location on our sensor doesn't require a specific configuration.
Using this air temperature sensor is straightforward. First, identify the appropriate location in your vehicle. It's commonly used in naturally aspirated and intercooled turbo or blower cars, but can work in other spots too. Make sure the area is clean before installing the sensor with its 3/8' NPT thread. When wiring, don't worry about a specific polarity as thermistors don't have one. Just connect the wires according to your vehicle's electrical system. For calibration, click on the relevant links for Fueltech, Holley, or Haltech systems. As for maintenance, keep the sensor clean from dirt and debris. The hard anodized CNC machined housing helps protect it, but regular visual inspections are a good idea. Remember, these sensors are not 100% Made in the USA due to difficulties in sourcing all electronic components domestically. If you need a different thread pattern or electrical connection, check out our full product line. Also, note that this sensor is optimized for accuracy in different temperature ranges depending on the model, so use it within the recommended - 10 to 335°F (or 0° - 210°F for better accuracy) for the standard model and 40° - 485°F for the Hi - AT series.
