Saeco 996530073428 Ntc Temperature Sensor Coffee Machine

Product Description

The SAECO 996530073428 is an NTC (negative temperature coefficient) temperature sensor designed for use in Saeco espresso and coffee machines. NTC sensors change electrical resistance as temperature changes, allowing the machine control board to monitor and regulate brewing and steam temperatures in real time. This unit features a lead length of approximately 21.65 inches (550mm), giving technicians adequate slack for routing during installation. It cross-references to Saeco part number 17800628. Appliance repair technicians and coffee equipment service professionals are the primary installers of this component.

This sensor is used in Saeco automatic and super-automatic espresso machines where precise temperature monitoring is required for the boiler or thermoblock circuit. It is suited for residential and light commercial units. When a machine exhibits temperature faults, inconsistent brew temperatures, or error codes related to heating, this sensor is a common service replacement item. Installation typically occurs during a diagnostic service call after fault codes or thermal testing point to sensor failure.

Key Features

• NTC thermistor design provides continuous, analog temperature feedback to the control board
• Lead length of 550mm (approximately 21.65 inches) allows flexible routing in compact machine housings
• Cross-references Saeco internal part number 17800628
• OEM-style replacement for maintaining original thermal regulation performance
• Designed for boiler or thermoblock temperature monitoring circuits

Compatibility

This part cross-references Saeco internal part number 17800628 and is a replacement component within the Saeco parts catalog. Consult the specific machine service manual or the Saeco parts diagram to confirm fitment for your model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician familiar with espresso machine servicing. Before beginning work, unplug the machine from its power source and allow all internal components to cool completely before handling any thermal or heating circuit parts. Follow applicable local appliance repair codes and the manufacturer service documentation when routing and connecting sensor leads. Do not apply excessive force when seating the sensor connector, as terminal damage may affect resistance readings and cause continued fault conditions.
