DA32-00011U - Samsung Refrigerator Temperature Sensor

This temperature sensor (DA32-00011U) is a genuine Samsung part designed for Samsung refrigerators. It is also known as a thermostat or thermistor, playing a crucial role in maintaining the preferred temperature inside your refrigerator's compartments. Achieving precise temperature regulation, this component is based on the principle of temperature-dependent resistance changes in certain materials, positioned strategically to accurately measure the ambient temperature. The sensor is connected to a control circuit that interprets resistance changes due to temperature variations, converting them into temperature readings. This mechanism ensures food and perishables are kept at safe temperatures, significantly minimizing spoilage and extending their shelf life. Symptoms that may indicate the need for a replacement include fluctuating refrigerator temperatures, spoiled food, or an overly active cooling system. Consider a new temperature sensor to maintain your refrigerator's performance and reliability. It's advisable to verify your device's model number for compatibility before making a purchase.
