Traditionally, resistance-temperature-detector (RTD) sensor resistance is measured by applying a precision current source and measuring the developed voltage. This approach usually requires a ...

Both the RTD itself and its accuracy must be considered when selecting the RTD sensor. The temperature range varies with element type, and the accuracy denoted at calibration temperature (usually at ...

The self-calibration process functions in situ and provides the necessary documentation to meet the conformance requirements of regulatory agencies. It eliminates the risk of an undetected calibration ...

Before running a formal test with multiple resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensors, it is often necessary to calibrate and debug a data-acquisition system to verify basic functionality. The ...

Temperature transmitters are employed to transmit a signal from a temperature sensor, such as a RTD or thermocouple, to a control or measurement device. These temperature transmitters amplify and ...

Next to oil and gas or chemical refineries, dairy product processing facilities contain an array of well calibrated and sophisticated process sensors—and in this photo, several automated mix-proof ...

Most people have heard the phrase “Birds of a feather flocktogether,” which describes people who have similar characteristicsor interests and choose to spend time together.Is it possible that some ...

TS400 and TS500 platinum resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are suitable for nearly all factory and process automation applications. The sensors may be mounted directly or remotely, and sense a ...
