Mineral Insulated Resistance Temperature Detectors

 

   •  High Accuracy and Stability

   •  Good Linearity

   •  No Compensating Cable

   •  No Cold Junction Compensation

 

General Description

 

Platinum Resistance Sensors offer the highest standard of accuracy and stability of any temperature sensor. They also exhibit good linear response, covering a temperature range from -200ºC to +650ºC. They are easy to apply

and require no special cables or cold junction reference.

 

Platinum resistance sensors are finding increasing favour in industry, where their high accuracy, repeatability and stability are vital. Our minerally insulated RTDs are manufactured from superior grade materials. In addition we provide technical expertise, advice, design and a manufacturing facility second to none.
