Which type of temperature senseing instrument you use in industry?

for temperature sensing i will suggest a RTD or A THermocouple. for temperature sensing i will suggest a RTD or A THermocouple.


How can you check the rtd?

The RTD gives the temperature in resistance unit (Ohm), so you put the RTD in water with ice (0 C/32 F) and you take the reading in Ohm unit in your multimeter, then you put the RTD in boiling water and you take the reading in Ohm. Then you compare the readings according to the table for Temp vs. Resistance to check. It is important that water must be distilled, deionized. Tap water may give false readings as it has minerals. Instead of water test, you can you thermowell which are devices where you program the desired temperature for check RTD and thermocouples. Walter


What voltage does a Resistor temperature detector put out?

None. An RTD is a passive device. It changes resistance as the temp varies. Your circuit must basically measure the resistance to determine temp. There are many different types of RTD's, each with it's own temperature curve.


How do you conect 3 wire rtd with xtr101?

Three lead RTD is an industrial standard when a bridge arrangement is used. The advantage of this design is it distributes resistance due to the connecting leads equally to the adjacent arms of the bridge making lead resistance insignificant and avoids any error due the same. When it comes matter of using xtr we need to add lead resistance with the R4 as given in the datasheet of texas. This can be done by using a variable resistance for R4 and do change the R4 such that the output current becomes 4mA for lower bound of range.. (ie) (their is no need to use the 3 lead RTD for accuracy same accuracy can acheived here with 2 lead RTD. just by having a variable resistor R4)


How temperature indicator transmitter work?

A temperature indicator transmitter works by converting temperature measurements from a sensor, such as a thermocouple or RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector), into an electrical signal. The sensor detects temperature changes and produces a corresponding voltage or resistance change. The transmitter then amplifies and conditions this signal, converting it into a standardized output, often in the form of a 4-20 mA current loop or a digital signal. This output can be transmitted to a control system or display for monitoring and analysis.

How do you identify the sensor failure?

It depends on which type of sensor you are referring to. Say if its a temp sensor like RTD, an open sensor will show a very large value of resistance and failed sensor may show any resistance value(and not according to a chart value corresponding to the temp for type of RTD). If its a pressure sensor, its output values would be outside the measurement range.

How is thermal overload protection done in stator windings of motor?

one way is to use RTD sensor put inside the motor windings. The RTD sensor is connected to an electronic thermal overload relay. This type of relay can provide running temperature of the motor, on the electronic thermal over load relay display panel. RTD sensor is a wire wound resistor that changes resistance depending on the temperature

How does a car outside temp sensor work?

The sensor can either be an RTD, resistive thermal device or a thermocouple. In the case of RTD, the resistance of the device changes with the temperature. This resistive value is sent to a calibrated meter or gauge. A RTD device is far more accurate than a thermocouple. Plus or minus .1 of 1%. In the case of a thermocouple a small voltage is created by the device which varies with the temperature. This is sent to the reading device or gauge. Plus or minus 2 0r 3 degrees.
