Standard resistance 
Notice:
- Even slightly touching the sensor may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the sensor.
- When measuring, the sensor temperature must be almost the same as the ambient temperature.
Hint:
As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).
If the result is not as specified, replace the sensor.
