A potseal facilitates the junction of the cable and is used for small stem diameters (D<4.7mm) and for operating temperatures in excess of 400°C, necessitating mineral insulation of the stem.
Sensor Types J, K, Pt100 are available in various diameters, lengths, accuracy classes, maximum temperature rating & cable options.
Notes:
*dimensions in mmTemperature in industry has a direct impact on the quality of the product being manufacture and the energy used by the process.
Resistive thermal devices (RTDs such as Pt100s) are temperature sensors that exploit the predictable change in electrical resistance of some materials with changing temperature.
Thermocouples (T/C type J, K, T….) are temperature sensors that are made of 2 dissimilar metals and produce a millivolt signal in proportion to temperature.
