An outstanding temperature sensor performance is characterized by:
•  The element
•  Quick and precise reaction
•  The packaging

1. Elements
Depending on the equipment different element technologies can be applied:
•  RTD (Pt100/Pt1000) - for standardizedsignals and high accuracy the RTD’s are a perfect choice
•  Thermistors (NTC/PTC)
  - the optimum solution for OEM equipment in large volumes
•  Thermocouples
  - a well-known technology for high temperatures and heavy-duty applications
If required the temperature sensor can also be delivered with a transmitter to get an analog signal:
•  4-20 mA
•  Voltage
•  Ratio metric

2. Quick and precise reaction
Special care has been put into the design of the sensor in relation to the reaction time. A specially developed sensor element fixture ensures contact between the element and the housing material in order to secure a fast heat transfer from the media to the sensor element. On top of this, the sensor construction ensures minimum radiation of heat, which results in a measurement very close to the actual temperature of the media.

3. Packaging
The sensor design offers long-life stability through:
•  High shock and vibration stability
•  High enclosure grade
  (special cases up to IP 69K)
•  Flexible choice of sensor material:
•  Stainless steel (AISI 316)
•  Brass
•  Gold plated contacts to secure flawless signal
