What is a cht sensor?

A CHT (Cylinder Head Temperature) sensor is a device used to measure the temperature of the engine's cylinder head, which is crucial for monitoring engine performance and preventing overheating. It provides real-time data that helps in optimizing engine operation and ensures safety by alerting the driver to potential overheating issues. CHT sensors are commonly used in aviation, automotive, and motorsport applications. Accurate readings from these sensors can enhance engine efficiency and longevity.
