RIFE Standard IAT Air Temperature Sensor – 1/8″ NPT, DTM Connector

RIFE Standard IAT sensors use an ultra-fast response thermistor that reads intake air temperature quicker and more accurately than typical EFI air temp sensors, so your ECU can make sharper, safer corrections to the tune. This is RIFE’s most popular IAT, suited to naturally aspirated cars and intercooled turbo or blower setups, and is optimised for accuracy between 0 to 210°F (-18 to 99°C).

Features

• 1/8″ NPT thread
• Up to 15x faster response than standard EFI air temp sensors
• Up to 3x more accurate readings
• Hard anodised, CNC machined housing
• 2 pin Deutsch DTM style connector
• Machined and assembled by RIFE in the USA

What’s Included

• 1 x RIFE Standard IAT sensor (1/8″ NPT, DTM connector)
• Not included: mating connector (2 pin DTM plug), sold separately

Specifications

• Part number: 53-1004
• Thread: 1/8″ NPT
• Temperature range: -10 to 335°F (-23 to 168°C)
• Most accurate between: 0 to 210°F (-18 to 99°C)
• Sensor type: NTC thermistor
• Connector: 2 pin Deutsch DTM style

Fitment

Suits aftermarket ECUs and data loggers that accept a custom air temp calibration, including Holley, FuelTech, Haltech, MoTeC and HP Tuners (Ford Coyote Gen 2/3).

Wiring

Thermistors have no polarity, so either pin can be wired to signal or sensor ground.

Good to Know

• Not plug and play with a factory ECU. Your ECU or logger must be set up with the RIFE calibration (RIFE publish guides for Holley, FuelTech, Haltech, MoTeC and HP Tuners).
• Need to read higher temperatures, such as compressor outlet temp? See the RIFE Hi IAT range.
• For racing use only. Not for road use.
