ABSTRACT:
An air cleaner temperature sensor for use in sensing the temperature of the air in an air cleaner and modulating the temperature of the air entering the air cleaner in response to the temperature in the air cleaner comprising a plastic body having an inlet adapted to be connected to a vacuum source and an outlet through which the vacuum can be connected to a motor for controlling the flow of air to the air cleaner. The body includes an opening to the ambient air surrounding the body, a valve in said opening and a bimetallic element is supported by the body and is operable to control the valve element such that the flow of air through the ambient air inlet is controlled by the bimetallic element, the body has a cover and an integral plastic hinge connecting the cover to the body. The cover has a portion thereof extending along the side wall of the body and an interengaging mechanical means between the cover and the body to lock the cover in position.
