Pt100, Pt1000 and NTC are the most-used measuring elements in resistance thermometers . I would like to use this blog to consider the question of connection types in greater detail. Resistance thermometers change their electrical resistance as a function of …

Safety temperature limiter for plants safe to operate
Andreas Borchard | Know-howHeat-generating plants are used in industry and in heating technology. The safe operation of such plants requires a large number of safety devices. They are designed to prevent, among other things, excess temperature, overpressure and vacuum. In the area of temperature …
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 …
Temperature – What actually is it?
Jochen Gries | Know-howTemperature - a term that we use almost daily as a matter of course, without being made aware of the physical correlations. But how is the term temperature defined? Everybody perceives temperature in their environment purely subjectively. If we are too warm or too …
Pt100, Pt1000 or NTC – which is the right sensor?
Roland Sachs | Know-howEspecially the machine-building industry often asks me which is the right measuring element for them. This is the reason why I want to explain in this article the differences between the most commonly used sensors Pt100, Pt1000 and NTC. I will go into more detail about …
