This guide will overview what an RTD is and how they are made and measured. What is an RTD temperature sensor? RTD stands for Resistance Temperature Detector. it is a temperature sensor element which changes electrical resistance when the temperature changes. this change in resistance is used to calculate the temperature. The RTD’s resistance increases … Read more
PT1000s are the most popular types of the platinum resistance temperature sensor elements. PT1000 get their name from PT meaning platinum and 1000 referring to the resistance measuring 1000Ω at 0°C. How does the PT100 Temperature Sensor Work? What is the PT100 Maximum Temperature Range? How to Test a PT100 with a Meter? How to … Read more
PT100s are the most popular types of the platinum resistance temperature sensor elements. PT100 get their name from PT meaning platinum and 100 referring to the reference resistance ,meaning at 0°C the resistance is 100Ω. How does the PT100 Temperature Sensor Work? What is the PT100 Maximum Temperature Range? How to Test a PT100 with … Read more
Calculator to convert RTD resistance to Temperature and Temperature to Resistance. RTD’s Such as PT100’s and PT1000’s change resistance when they respond to temperature . As the Temperature increases so does the Resistance. This calculator quickly converts RTD Resistance to Temperature compared to thermistors RTD’s (PT100 and PT1000) are considered linear but in absolute terms … Read more
