Temperature sensors - TSM, TSP, THA, THK, TJK, TP

Thermal converters (temperature sensors ТСМ, ТСП, ТХА, ТХК, ТЖК, thermometers, RTD, thermocouples, Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000) are designed to measure the ambient temperature, liquid, gaseous and granular chemically non-aggressive media, as well as the surface of solids in various industries . Consider the principle of operation of various temperature sensors manufactured by the enterprise.

Resistive temperature sensors (RTD, TSM, TSP)

Consider the first type of electrical sensors - resistance temperature sensor or RTD... Temperature sensors are precision temperature sensors made of high purity conductive metals such as platinum, copper or nickel that are wound in a coil and whose electrical resistance changes with temperature, like a thermistor. Thin film RTDs are also available. These devices have a thin layer of platinum paste deposited on a white ceramic substrate.

Resistive temperature sensors have positive temperature coefficients (PTC), but unlike a thermistor, their output is extremely linear, which gives very accurate temperature measurements.

However, they have a very low thermal sensitivity, that is, a change in temperature results in only a very small change in output power, for example 1 ohm / ° C.

The most common types of resistance thermometers are made of platinum and are called platinum resistance thermometers or PRTs, the most common of which are all Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000 sensors, which have a standard resistance value of 100, 500, 1000 Ohm at 0 ° C, respectively.

The enterprise serially produces resistance thermometers of the type TSM (sensors with NSX 50M, 53M, 100M), TSP (sensors with NSX 50P, 100P, Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000) of various modifications.
The company has the ability to manufacture temperature sensors TSM, TSP, TXA, THK, TJK according to individual customer requirements.

Thermocouples (THA, THK, TJK)

Thermocouple is the most common type of temperature sensor. Thermocouples are popular for their simplicity, ease of use and speed of response to temperature changes, mainly due to their small size. Thermoelectric converters also have the widest temperature range of any temperature sensor, from -200 ° C to over 2000 ° C.

Thermocouple are thermoelectric sensors that are mainly composed of two compounds of dissimilar metals such as copper and constantan, which are welded or crimped together. One connection is maintained at a constant temperature called reference (cold), and the other is measured (hot). When two connections are at different temperatures, a voltage develops across the connection, which is used to measure the temperature sensor.

The REGMIK enterprise manufactures temperature sensors (TSM, TSP, TXA, THK, TJK, TP) of both standard design and according to individual customer requirements.
