Delphi TS30229 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor - Center or Middle of Particulate Filter

Overview of Delphi TS30229 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor

The Delphi TS30229 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor is designed to monitor exhaust temperatures accurately in Jeep Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500 vehicles. This sensor helps maintain optimal emission control by providing precise temperature readings at the center, middle of the particulate filter.

• Maximum temperature rating of 850°C for reliable performance under high heat
• 5.91-inch wiring harness length for flexible installation
• Threaded nut mounting type ensures secure attachment
• Blade terminal type with 2 terminals (male terminals, female connector)
• Oval-shaped female connector for proper fitment
• Position-specific design for center placement on particulate filter

Detailed Product Description

The Delphi TS30229 EGT sensor is engineered to withstand exhaust temperatures up to 850 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for demanding emission control applications in Jeep Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500 models. Its 5.91-inch wiring harness length allows for convenient routing and connection within the engine bay. The sensor features a threaded nut mounting type, providing a secure and stable installation at the center of the particulate filter, which is critical for accurate temperature measurement.

Equipped with a blade terminal type, the sensor includes two terminals with male terminal gender and a female oval-shaped connector, ensuring compatibility with factory wiring harnesses. This position-specific sensor is designed to fit precisely in the middle of the particulate filter, helping maintain proper emission system function and compliance.
