Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor (CHT) | Thermometrics
The Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor is designed to take the place of one of the cylinder head bolts on a diesel engine. The sensor’s purpose is to measure the cylinder head temperature and to signal the vehicle’s operator if an engine overheats (that is, if an engine over-temperature is taking place). The engine will be in danger of permanent damage if it continues to run at an elevated temperature.
