TE RTD Platinum Thin Film Elements with Custom Packaging

TE Connectivity is now offering custom packaging for resistance temperature detectors (RTD) platinum thin film elements.

• Provides highly accurate and stable performance in demanding applications that require fast and precise feedback as well as energy efficiency and stability
• Globally interchangeable drop-in elements enables design of probes and assemblies with custom packaging for various applications   
• Resistance of platinum thin film elements adjusts in linear fashion to changes in temperature to provide accurate, stable measurement in extreme environments with accuracy ranges from ±0.1K to ±0.6K at 0 C (32 F)
• Rugged construction of glass minimizes field failures and need for replacement  
• Provides stability at high temperatures with low drift over lifetime and are engineered to withstand temperatures from -200-600 C (-328-1,112 F)
• Specific temperature ranges vary depending on the accuracy class and type of lead wires
• Gold coated nickel lead wire is available for higher temperature operation and for welding applications, while silver lead wire is available for lower temperature operation and for applications that involve soldering
• Offers small outline and low mass suited for applications with rapid temperature changes
• Outline dimensions are available in four standard sizes and allow for easy packaging in variety of housing styles
• Delivers fast response time to increase efficiency with different accuracy classes available per DIN EN 60751
