Figure 2. A block diagram of an RTD industrial temperature sensor. An RTD translates a physical quantity (temperature) into an electrical signal and is typically used to detect temperatures between ...

An earlier Design Idea described how to linearize the output of an RTD (resistance-temperature-detector) sensor and how to calculate the resistor values using a spreadsheet (Reference 1).That idea ...

Omega introduces its new PR-21 series of RTD sensors with M12 connector which features an all welded 316L stainless steel housing, an integral 4-pin M12 connector for easy connection, a fast response ...

2. Nomenclature for the RTD sensor wires maintains consistency, regardless of the number of wires used. This emulator supports all three RTD configurations (Fig. 3).It uses an external current ...
