Replacement for Danfoss 077F8761 ETN Cabinet Temperature Sensor 59"(1.5M) Cable, 12 Month Warranty & USA Support

Restore accurate cabinet temperature monitoring with the Wholesale Sensors Replacement for Danfoss 077F8761 ETN Cabinet Temperature Sensor with 59-inch (1.5 m) Cable. Designed as a perfect OEM-style replacement, this temperature sensor is engineered to meet or exceed original functional specifications while providing dependable temperature feedback to compatible Danfoss electronic refrigeration controllers.

The 077F8761 is specifically designed as a cabinet temperature sensor, making it an important component in commercial refrigeration systems that depend on accurate temperature feedback for proper cooling control.

Replacement for Danfoss 077F8761

Danfoss identifies 077F8761 as an ETN temperature sensor for cabinet temperature monitoring. According to Danfoss documentation, this configuration uses a PVC standard 5K NTC thermistor, has a cable length of 1500 mm, or approximately 59.06 inches, and connects to the controller through the S1 cabinet sensor input.

The sensor is supplied with a RAST 2.5 edge connector. Danfoss documentation also identifies 077F8761 as a three-terminal configuration intended for compatible ERC controls.

The primary OEM reference for this configuration is 077F8761. Danfoss offers several visually similar ETN sensors with different lengths, connections, and intended sensing positions, so those numbers should not automatically be treated as interchangeable cross-references.

For example, 077F8757 is the shorter 1000 mm S1 cabinet sensor, while 077F8765 is the longer 2000 mm S1 cabinet sensor. The 3500 mm version is 077F8723. These sensors share the same general 5K NTC family but differ in cable length.

Cabinet Sensor for Danfoss Refrigeration Controls

Danfoss designed its ETN temperature sensor family for use with electronic refrigeration controllers. The manufacturer explains that these NTC sensors change electrical resistance as temperature changes in a manner compatible with the controller software. High measurement accuracy and close tolerances help the controller maintain improved temperature control.

For the 077F8761 specifically, Danfoss identifies its function as a cabinet sensor. In compatible ETC applications, it connects to the S1 port, which is assigned to cabinet temperature sensing.

This distinction is important because Danfoss manufactures separate sensors for different refrigeration functions.

For example, the 077F8790 is also 1500 mm long, but Danfoss documentation assigns it to the S2 evaporator sensor position. Likewise, 077F8760 is a 1500 mm sensor assigned to the S3 condenser sensor position.

Customers should therefore match the complete 077F8761 part number rather than purchasing based only on cable length or physical appearance.

Compatible Danfoss ERC and ETC Controls

The 077F8761 belongs to Danfoss’s ETN temperature sensor family for electronic refrigeration controls. Danfoss documentation identifies the ETN sensors for use with its ERC range of controllers, while ETC technical documentation specifically lists 077F8761 as the 1.5-meter S1 cabinet sensor for compatible ETC 1H controls.

This makes the sensor suitable for commercial refrigeration equipment equipped with the applicable Danfoss controller and configured for the 077F8761 cabinet temperature input.

Unlike automotive replacement sensors, compatibility is not based on vehicle make, model, and year. Commercial refrigeration manufacturers can use the same Danfoss controller in many different equipment configurations. The most reliable method of confirming compatibility is to check the controller type, sensor input, connector, cable length, and original sensor part number.

If the existing cabinet probe is marked 077F8761 and the system requires the 1.5-meter S1 ETN 5K NTC sensor configuration, this replacement is designed for that application.

59-Inch Cable and 5K NTC Thermistor

Danfoss specifies the 077F8761 with a cable length of 1.500 meters, approximately 59.06 inches. The sensor uses the manufacturer’s standard PVC 5K NTC configuration.

The operating range for this standard PVC ETN sensor family is -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for temperature monitoring across a wide range of commercial refrigeration applications.

Danfoss describes its ETN sensor construction as incorporating a molded plastic/steel sensor case, insulated connecting cable, and RAST 2.5 connectors. The connection system is designed to help provide mistake-resistant connection to compatible controllers.

Each Wholesale Sensors replacement is rigorously tested for temperature response, electrical characteristics, sensing consistency, continuity, and reliability to support dependable refrigeration operation.

Helps Restore Accurate Refrigeration Control

The cabinet temperature sensor supplies temperature information that the compatible electronic controller uses to manage refrigeration operation. When a cabinet sensor becomes inaccurate, damaged, electrically open, or shorted, the controller may receive incorrect information about actual cabinet conditions.

Depending on the equipment and controller configuration, possible symptoms can include incorrect displayed temperature, cabinet temperatures that are too warm or too cold, abnormal compressor cycling, inconsistent refrigeration performance, or difficulty maintaining the programmed temperature.

These symptoms do not automatically confirm that the 077F8761 sensor has failed.

Similar problems can result from damaged wiring, loose connections, incorrect controller settings, evaporator or condenser fan problems, blocked airflow, dirty condenser coils, door gasket leaks, compressor problems, or refrigeration system faults.

Proper diagnosis should be performed before replacing components.

Straightforward Replacement

Installation is designed to follow the existing 077F8761 cabinet sensor configuration. Disconnect electrical power to the refrigeration equipment before beginning service.

Locate the existing cabinet probe and document its sensing position and cable routing. Disconnect the original sensor from the compatible controller and install the replacement using the same routing and sensing location.

The 59-inch cable and RAST 2.5 connection are intended to match the corresponding 077F8761 configuration. Correct probe placement is important because moving a cabinet sensor to a substantially different location can cause it to measure a different temperature than the controller is intended to monitor.

Commercial refrigeration equipment does not use automotive OBD-II diagnostic trouble codes. Controller alarms and sensor errors depend on the specific Danfoss controller configuration. If a problem remains after sensor replacement, check the wiring, controller configuration, fans, airflow, compressor operation, and refrigeration system.
