A superheat sensor includes a housing, a pressure sensor mounted within the housing, and a processor. A fluid passageway connects the pressure sensor to a source of superheat fluid. An external temperature sensor is located outside the housing of the superheat sensor and is electrically connected to the processor. The external temperature sensor is also electronically connected to a component of a fluid system to which the superheat sensor is attached and is configured to provide one of an internal temperature of the component, an external temperature of the component, and a temperature of fluid in the component.
