The most common materials used for RTD (resistance temperature detector) sensors are platinum, nickel, and copper. Platinum is the most commonly used material due to its high accuracy and stability in a wide temperature range.

How does an RTD measure temperature?

An RTD, or resistance temperature detector is based in the principal that the resistance of a conductor changes as its temperature changes. The RTD consists of a long length of fine coiled wire made from some pure material such as nickel, platinum or copper. The coil is in the form of a probe and may be encased in a protective sheath. The wire material has a known response - in how its resistance changes with temerature - and this known change is used to determine temperature.


What are the different RTD types?

2 wire.3 wire nd 4 wire...rtd... 3 wire rtd is widly used....hv good accuracy...


What is the ohmic value of two wire rtd?

The ohmic value of a two-wire RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) typically ranges from 100 ohms to 1000 ohms at 0°C. This value increases with temperature due to the positive temperature coefficient of the RTD material.


Why pt 100 is only used in rtd?

platinum has a conductivity of .00384 ohm m.which makes it as a very sensitive material towards change in its electrical resistance ,more over its a inert metal ,and its also resistant to vibration. so this makes platinum as a ideal metal for RTD.
