The devices themselves were marvels of instrumentation, but mercury is a hazardous substance, and since 2011 NIST will no longer calibrate mercury thermometers. A typical Pt100 RTD probe Luckily ...
RTD Probes (Resistance Temperature Detector Probes) are comprised of pure metal (usually platinum). As the electrical resistance of the metal increases, the temperature increases. A small positive ...
Commonly referred to as ‘Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs)’ or ... As an updated and modified model of RTD, PT100 resistors often exceed the precision of traditional measurement ...
