BRTD70- An Industrial RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) without extension is a high-accuracy industrial temperature sensor designed for direct insertion into a process or surface without the use of thermowells. These RTDs are commonly used in industrial applications where precise temperature measurement is required in harsh or high-temperature environments.
Key Features:-
- Uses connection head to protect the electrical connections from environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and mechanical damage.
- Copper Tip for Fast resposne
- Connection head usually made of aluminum, stainless steel or plastic and available in weatherproof, explosion-proof or corrosion-resistant designs.
- Connection head contains terminals or 4-20mA output temperature transmitter for signal conditioning.
- Available with Pt100 or Pt1000 elements per IEC 60751 standard in Class A or Class B accuracy ratings.
- Available in 2-wire, 3-wire, or 4-wire configurations for enhanced accuracy and reduced lead wire resistance errors.
- Available in 304, 316, or 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance and sheath diameters range from 3mm to 12mm (custom sizes available).
