Thermocouples
A thermocouple consists of two wires of different material, which due to the thermoelectric effect generate a voltage from which the temperature can be derived.Depending on the desired application temperature, you can choose different thermocouples.
- Type J iron copper nickel according to DIN EN 60584 and ANSI 96.1
- Type L iron copper nickel according to DIN 43710
- Type K nickel chrome nickel according to DIN EN 60584 and ANSI 96. 1
- Type K nickel-chromium-nickel according to DIN 43710
- Types E, R, S and T according to DIN EN 60584 and ANSI 96. 1
- Type N according to DIN EN 60584
- Type B according to ANSI 96.1
- Type U according to DIN 43710
Properties and advantages:
- Also applicable in higher temperature ranges, such as. Types B, R and S which are temperature resistant up to 1600°C
- Short response time to temperature changes for fast reactions of the controlled system, especially with potential-containing measuring point
- Robust to mechanical stress and less sensitive than e.g. resistance thermometers to shocks and vibrations
- Very common and well-known sensor type
- Effectively priced
RTDs
In many areas of industry, temperature is measured with resistance thermometers. For this purpose, an ohmic resistor is used as the temperature sensor. Its resistance value is temperature-dependent. Platinum has become established as the resistor material. The most commonly used platinum alloy bears the designation Pt100, which we manufacture in accordance with DIN EN 60751.Other types of sensors available include. For example:
- Pt100
- Pt500
- Pt1000
- Ni100
- Ni120
- various NTC sensors
Properties and advantages:
- higher measuring accuracy than thermocouples
- best long-term stability
- high chemical resistance due to platinum
