Minco's Tip Sensitive RTD, part number S53PA216Y4, features a copper alloy sensing tip that enhances thermal conductivity, allowing for rapid response to temperature changes. This design enables the sensor to provide accurate measurements at the tip rather than the stem, making it suitable for applications in thermowells and bearings. The RTD operates within a temperature range of -50 to 260°C (-58 to 500°F) and is rated for a pressure of 100 psi (6.9 bar). It is constructed with stainless steel and offers various lead configurations, including 2, 3, or 4 leadwires. The device is designed to withstand significant shock and vibration, meeting military standards for durability. The time constant for the RTD is typically 2.0 seconds in moving water, ensuring timely temperature readings.
Minco tip-sensitive RTD probes feature a sensing tip constructed of copper alloy. The copper alloy tip is twenty times more conductive than stainless steel, providing increased sensitivity and rapid response to changes in temperature. The tip sensitive design also focuses the temperature sensitive portion of the sensor near the tip of the probe, providing improved accuracy in thermowells, bearings and other installations.
