There are many reasons for using electrical thermometers with short response times: optimisation of the efficiency, more efficient utilisation of the working range of a process, avoidance of thermal overload of the process medium. But how are response times measured, …

China Compulsory Certification (CCC) for electrical thermometers
Joachim Brückner | TemperatureThe “China Compulsory Certification (CCC)” is a certification system of the People's Republic of China. Since 1 October 2020 it is, for example, no longer permissible to place explosion-protected electrical thermometers (resistance thermometers and thermocouples) …
Ice cold – Electrical thermometers in low ambient temperatures
Joachim Brückner | Know-howMedium temperatures of -60 °C don't even make the designers of electrical thermometers shrug their shoulders – but when one speaks of ambient temperatures of -60 °C, then one often hears a sharp intake of (cold) breath. It quickly becomes clear that one cannot …
Heat dissipation
Joachim Brückner | Know-how"At best, a thermometer only ever measures its own temperature". The aim is therefore to equalise the temperature of the sensor element to that of the medium to be measured. Only then will the thermometer display the actual medium temperature. The heat …
