The linear approximation of the resistance temperature relationship of the metals between 0 0 c.
Rtd sensor temperature range.
Different combinations of metals can be used in building the thermocouples to provide different calibrations with different temperature ranges and sensor characteristics.
Thermocouples are temperature sensors that use two different metals in the sensor to produce a voltage that can be read to determine the local temperature.

The curve describes the resistance vs temperature characteristics of a platinum 100 ohm sensor the standardized tolerances and the measurable temperature range.
For platinum is used the range is up to 660 0 c.
From the temperature of 0 0 c up to a temperature value where the change is linear is considered as the temperature range of the sensor.
Note that iec 60751 specifies a maximum temperature range for each class.
The relative change in resistance temperature coefficient.
Common rtd sensing elements constructed of platinum copper or nickel have a repeatable resistance versus temperature relationship r vs t and operating temperature range the r vs t relationship is defined as the amount of resistance change of the sensor per degree of temperature change.
When comparing the pt100 vs pt1000 in terms of resistance keep in mind that resistance value readings for the pt1000 will be higher by a factor of ten than.
Home products temperature sensors resistance temperature detectors rtd resistance temperature detectors rtd understanding an application s performance requirements such as operating temperatures accuracy and repeatability demands material compatibility issues and environmental conditions are crucial to designing the best rtd temperature sensor solution.
The din standard specifies a base resistance of 100 ohms at 0 c and a temperature coefficient of 00385 ohm ohm c.
By selecting the proper elements and protective sheathing rtds can operate in a temperature range of 200 to 650 c 328 to 1202 f.
Each type of temperature sensor has a particular set of conditions for which it is best suited.
This depends on the material of the wire used in the sensor.
The rtd pt100 and pt1000 are available in a similar range of tolerances and both can have similar temperature coefficients depending on the purity of the platinum used in the sensor.

Resistance temperature relationship of metals.
When operated outside this temperature range the sensor accuracy might default to class b.
Rtds offer several advantages.
A wide temperature range approximately 200 to 850 c good accuracy better than thermocouples good interchangeability long term stability.
Nickel is suitable for temperatures below 300 0 c.
