The temperature sensors used in the Modulex boiler are 5k Ohm Negative Temperature
Coefficient (NTC). The relationship between temperature (°F or °C) and the nominal resistance
(Ohms) of the sensor are inversely proportional. That is; when temperature increases, sensor
resistance decreases and vice versa.

For Example:

At 77°F (25°C), the resistance is 5000 Ohms

At 194°F (90°C), the resistance is 458 Ohms
