The AM1660 and AM1640 series of Industrial Precision PRTs (IPRTs) are rugged probes with excellent accuracy and stability. These IPRTs cover a wide temperature range from -200Ā°C to 670Ā°C, with an amazing accuracy of Ā±0.035Ā°C and short-term stability of Ā±0.01Ā°C.
To achieve the best stability and repeatability performance, the wire-wound sensing element is specially designed to protect the platinum sensor wire from high-temperature contamination. A unique support structure and filler material provide the best balance between hysteresis effect, mechanical shock and thermal shock performance.
This probe conforms to standard curve 385 and comes standard with a NIST-referenced calibration certificate.
What are Industrial Precision PRTs?
Industrial Precision Platinum Resistance Thermometers (PRTs) are advanced temperature sensors used in industrial environments for accurate temperature measurements. These thermometers exploit the principle that the electrical resistance of platinum changes with temperature, making them highly reliable for accurate measurements.
The core of an industrial precision PRT consists of a fine wire or film of pure platinum. This platinum component is sensitive to temperature changes, with small changes in resistance directly linked to temperature differences. This sensitivity ensures high accuracy and makes PRTs ideal for applications where precision is crucial.
One of the main advantages of precision industrial PRTs is their stability and reliability, even in demanding conditions such as extreme temperatures, high pressure or corrosive environments. They are often designed with robust enclosures to protect them and extend their life in industrial settings.
Industrial precision PRTs are widely used in industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food processing and energy production. They are essential for processes where temperature control is critical, such as in chemical production, food quality monitoring, or in research and development laboratories.
