RS PRO RTD Detector Platinum Resistance Thermometer Sensor 2.8 mm Diameter 25 mm Length Class B Accuracy 650 °C PT100

The RS PRO PT100 RTD Detector is a premium platinum resistance temperature sensor designed for industrial and laboratory temperature measurement. It features a 2.8 mm diameter and 25 mm long platinum probe with a wire wound Pt100 sensing element that delivers consistent and accurate readings across a wide temperature range from -200 °C to 650 °C.

This sensor utilizes the principle of platinum wire resistance variation with temperature, which offers a highly linear and stable output. The wire wound element is constructed by winding pure platinum wire into a miniature spiral embedded inside a high purity alumina ceramic rod to allow free expansion and contraction, minimizing measurement anomalies.

The cylindrical probe shape makes it suitable for housing inside protective metal tubes or sheaths, facilitating integration into various temperature monitoring setups. It is terminated by soldered leads for robust electrical connectivity. The sensor offers a rapid response time of 0.4 seconds and a Class B accuracy rating, balancing precision and durability.

This PT100 RTD sensor is extensively used across industries including automotive, chemical processing, micro-electronics, air conditioning and refrigeration systems, food processing, and laboratory environments where high-fidelity temperature data is critical.

This RTD sensor uses a platinum probe material ensuring high reliability and linear temperature-resistance correlation. Features a wire wound Pt100 element which offers excellent stability and precise readings. Cylindrical probe shape with 2.8 mm diameter and 25 mm length for easy housing in protective sheaths.
