Temperature sensors Here you will find different temperature sensors for multiple applications. Temperature sensors are mainly used to measure both air temperature as well as surface temperature in liquids and solids. Our range of temperature sensors is as broad as the different applications they can carry out. In addition to resistance sensors (Pt100) you will also find type K thermo-elements (NiCr-Ni). The WTR series temperature sensors offer a solution to many different problems. We offer standard temperature sensors for the industrial sector and for the gastronomy. They are distinguished by a stainless steel connection and for the possibility of creating an aseptic measured point. The WTR-400 temperature sensors have a compact design. The connection is performed through a M12 plug. A transducer, which offers a 4-20 mA output signal, can be optionally added at the bottom of the case. Clamping screws and welded sleeves can be ordered separately. The WTR-270 series is an especial version of temperature sensors. These temperature sensors have been designed as driving-in sensors, not as a fixed installation ones. If you do not find the temperature sensors you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution to suit your needs by calling our offices on: +44 ( 0 ) 2380 98703 0 and our technical staff will advise you regarding our measuring instruments.

Temperature is one of the most measured physical properties. Temperature sensors transform a physical quantity into a resistance or voltage. Temperature sensors can be used for many different applications as for instance to measured temperature at home, in the office or a material temperature during its boiling process. They are used in both the industrial and the private sectors. Temperature sensors use different physical effects to transform temperature into an electrical quantity. Resistance sensors change their electrical resistance when temperature changes. Since the characteristic curve is not always linear, corrections should be done to get the highest accuracy. The Pt100 is a very common resistance sensor. It is a platinum sensor with a resistance from 100 ohms to 0ºC. Thermo elements also use the so-called Seebeck effect. This effect causes direct voltage in connections. Because of this effect is only in the µV range and it is necessary to know the accurate temperature at the measured point, measurement with thermo elements sometimes can be inaccurate. However, they have advantages such as a quick response time they also allow to measure very high temperatures. Thermo-elements can be made up with different materials. Some thermo-elements are identified with letters. (For example, K, J, etc). Measurement ranges are the main difference.
