Panel connector for temperature gradient sensing probe
First Claim
1. A panel connector securely connecting an edge connector of a temperature gradient sensing probe having a support shaft to a monitoring circuit, the panel connector comprising:
- a base having a top side containing a support shaft receiving channel therein;
a plurality of resilient electrical contacts formed from a first conductive material residing on the top side of the base;
at least one resilient electrical contact formed from a second conductive material, which is dissimilar from the first conductive material, residing on the top side of the base;
means for clamping the edge connector and support shaft of the temperature gradient sensing probe in the panel connector; and
means for connecting the resilient contacts to a monitoring circuit.
