Abstract

The invention relates to a circuit arrangement (K), with a low-temperature coolant circuit (1) for the cooling of charge air on a motor vehicle with a charging device, comprising a charge air/coolant cooler (2). A temperature sensor (4) is provided at the exit of the coolant from the charge air/coolant (2), or directly thereafter, for the measurement of the coolant exit temperature. The invention further relates to a method for operation of such a circuit arrangement (K).
