This RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) is a reliable and highly accurate temperature-sensing device, designed for industrial and process applications. It features a 100-ohm platinum element (PT100), offering precise temperature measurement with excellent repeatability and interchangeability.

Key Features:

• Type: RTD Transition Sensor
• Element Type: 100 Ohm Platinum (PT100)
• Sheath Dimensions: 1/4-inch OD, 6-inch length for versatile installation
• Lead Wire: 72-inch Teflon-coated lead wires with 2-inch stripped ends for easy connectivity
• Wire Configuration: 3-wire design for compensation of lead wire resistance, ensuring measurement accuracy
• Sheath Material: 316 stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance
• Temperature Range: -30°C to 200°C (-22°F to 392°F)
• Lead Wire Color Code: 2 red wires, 1 white wire for straightforward identification

How RTDs Work: Resistance Temperature Detectors operate by utilizing the predictable change in electrical resistance of metallic elements as temperature varies. In this sensor, a small excitation current is passed through the platinum element, and the resulting voltage is measured and converted into a temperature reading. This 3-wire configuration minimizes errors caused by the lead wire’s resistance, ensuring precise temperature monitoring.

Construction and Durability: The RTD element is constructed with either wire-wound or thin-film technology, encapsulated within a robust ceramic or glass housing for stability and longevity. The sheath is made from 316 stainless steel, providing exceptional protection in harsh environments, including exposure to chemicals, moisture, and fluctuating temperatures. The Teflon-coated lead wires add extra durability and resistance to abrasion, making this RTD suitable for demanding industrial applications.
