The Minco Tip Sensitive RTD, part number S851PD57Z48, 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 of tip temperature rather than stem temperature, making it suitable for applications in thermowells and bearings. The RTD operates within a temperature range of -50 to 260¬8C (-58 to 500¬8F) and has a time constant of approximately 2.0 seconds in moving water. The probe is constructed with a stainless steel case and is available in various lengths, with a maximum length of 48 inches. It is rated for a pressure of 100 psi (6.9 bar) and can withstand significant shock and vibration, meeting military standards for durability. The RTD can be configured with 2, 3, or 4 lead wires, depending on the application requirements.
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.
