Precision Centigrade Temperature Sensors
This sensor probe utilizes a dual precision integrated-circuit temperature sensor, whose output voltage is linearly proportional to the Celsius temperature. This sensor does not require any external calibration or trimming to provide typical accuracies of ±1/4°C at room temperature or ±3/4°C over a full –55°C to 150°C temperature range. This sensor includes a Molex 4-pin connector.

Design Features:

  • Calibrated directly in °C
  • Linear +10.0mv/°C scale factor
  • ±1/4°C accuracy (at 25°C)
  • Rated to full -55°C to 150°C range
  • Suitable for remote applications
  • Operates from 4 to 30 volts
  • Less than 60µa current drain
  • Low self-heating, 0.08°C in still air
  • Nonlinearity only ±1/4°C typical
  • Low impedance output, 0.1Ω for 1ma load

2000 Ohm RTD Sensors
This sensor probe is a fast responding 2000 ohm RTD sensor used widely in the hvac, appliance and automotive industries.

Design Features:

  • Protected in a 316 SS housing and supplied with 22 ga. Teflon® leads.
  • 2000 ohm nominal resistance at 20°C
  • Accurate to ±0.7°C at 20°C
  • Near linear temperature sensitivity; provides 8Ω/°C sensitivity
  • ±3% max. linearity (can be linearized to ±0.2%)
  • Long term stability
  • Interchangeable without sensor-to-sensor recalibration
  • Operating temperature range of –40°C to +150°C

Spring-Loaded Surface Contact Thermocouples
This Type J thermocouple is used to sense the temperature of moving drums or rollers.

  • Spring-loaded tip provides free movement and proper contact of the sensing tip
  • Sensing tip is made of copper for fast response time
  • Thermocouple wires are terminated in a miniature connection head and connected to a terminal block
  • Maximum Operating Temperature: up to 500°F (260°C).
  • Part Number TCP90185
  • Type J Calibration
  • Contact Tempco for other calibrations, complete details and ordering information

Compound Mixer Thermocouple
This Type J thermocouple is used in mixers and pelletizers.

  • Maximum Operating Temperature: 750°F (400°C)
  • Body is made of 416 SS
  • Ungrounded junction, and sensing tip is isolated from the body with a high temperature thermal barrier to ensure accuracy
  • Part Number: TCP90231
