For a measuring insert with a Pt100 resistance sensor, the temperature-sensitive sensor element is made from platinum RTD whose value at 0℃/ +32°F is 100 Ω. The electrical resistance of metals increases according to a mathematical function as the temperature rises. This effect is used with resistance thermometers to measure the temperature: a constant current I flows through the Pt100 RTD, creating a voltage drop U. The resistance “R” follows Ohm’s Law: R = U / I and corresponds to a specific temperature. The temperature dependency is repeatable and is standardised in a characteristic curve. Very simply put, think of the thermocouple as a battery whose voltage increases with the temperature. The temperature, dependent on the thermovoltage, is standardised and can thus be precisely determined |

| Industrial Temperature Assemblies |
| The OPTITEMP temperature assembly is available with or without thermowell, usually attached with a compression fitting. It's an all-purpose device since the decision as to the required insertion depth is only necessary immediately prior to installation. |
|
Temperature range from -200°C to ≤ 600°C, depending on the load |
|
Different heads available, IP54 to IP68 |
|
Optional head mounted transmitter & display |
|
Spring loaded mineral isolated RTD or TC insert |
|
Inserts sheath material 316 L or Inconel 600 |
| High Temperature Assemblies |
| The OPTITEMP TCA-P60 is an insertion thermocouple with steel thermowell, equipped with base-metal thermocouple only, e.g. with mineral-insulated measuring insert TC100 element types J and K. |
|
Temperature range with type J up to 750°C |
|
Temperature range with type K up to 1150°C |
|
