TrolMaster PCT-3 Heavy-Duty Inline Nutrient EC and Temperature Sensor

Fit a Heavy-Duty EC and Temp Sensor Into Tight PVC Runs

Some commercial plumbing layouts don't have room for a standard-diameter sensor body, particularly where lines are tightly packed or run through pre-set fittings. The TrolMaster PCT-3 Heavy Duty Nutrient EC/Temp Sensor installs drop-in or inline through a standard 3/4-inch PVC tee fitting, using a reduced-diameter sleeve and shortened body to fit into tighter plumbing spaces.

It works with either the AMP-2 or AMP-3 sensor board via a 3.6-meter cable and Mini DIN terminal, giving installers flexibility in how the sensor connects to an existing Aqua-X setup.

Key Features & Benefits

• Drop-In or Inline Installation — fits a standard 3/4-inch PVC tee fitting either way.
• Reduced-Diameter Sleeve — is built to fit tighter plumbing spaces than a standard sensor body.
• Compatible with AMP-2 or AMP-3 — connects to either sensor board on an Aqua-X controller.
• 3.6-Meter Cable with Mini DIN Terminal — provides reach between the sensor and controller.
• Rated Working Conditions — operates from 32 to 122°F for varied plumbing environments.

Who Should Use the PCT-3 EC/Temp Sensor

Commercial growers who need a durable, space-saving EC and temperature sensor that fits into tight inline PVC plumbing runs are the intended users of the PCT-3. It's the choice when the standard-diameter PCT-2 doesn't physically fit the available fitting space.

About TrolMaster

The PCT-3 is the space-constrained option in TrolMaster's nutrient sensor lineup, engineered at the Sacramento, California company's headquarters for plumbing layouts where a standard-diameter sensor simply won't fit. Compatibility with both the AMP-2 and AMP-3 boards keeps it usable across different generations of Aqua-X hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this sensor install into plumbing?

Drop-in or inline through a standard 3/4-inch PVC tee fitting. Either method uses the same reduced-diameter sensor body.

What sensor boards is this compatible with?

The AMP-2 or AMP-3 sensor board. Either board can host this sensor's connection.

How long is the connecting cable?

3.6 meters, with a Mini DIN terminal. That's slightly shorter than the 6-meter cable on the PCT-1 and PCT-2.

Why does this sensor have a reduced-diameter sleeve?

To fit into tighter plumbing spaces than a standard sensor body. That sleeve is what lets it drop into a 3/4-inch tee fitting where a bulkier probe wouldn't fit.

What is the working temperature range?

32 to 122°F. That range covers typical indoor and greenhouse plumbing environments.
