Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) are increasingly becoming the sensor of choice for temperature measurement applications due to the accuracy and long term stability that platinum elements offer.
These devices are very linear over a wide temperature range. Due to advances in technology, resistance temperature detector elements are very robust and cost effective. They can be designed into a wide variety of packages that suit applications up to 1200°F.
