Made for instrument calibration, this RTD capsule pairs a Pt100 element 3-wire at high-accuracy tolerance with a measuring range of 500°F (260°C).
Made for instrument calibration, this RTD capsule pairs a Pt100 element 3-wire at high-accuracy tolerance with a measuring range of 500°F (260°C).
Ready to use platinum RTD capsules have insulated lead wires welded and anchored internally. No splicing to fragile elements is required. This construction assures reliable rugged embedment, insertion or probe assembly.
Tip diameters from 0.086 to 0.125" (2.2 to 3.2 mm). Standard sensors and encapsulation materials rated up to 1004°F (540°C). Choose the moisture resistant version for condensing conditions.
