RTDs and thermocouples are both temperature sensors, each with distinct characteristics. RTDs measure temperature based on resistance changes in metals or semiconductors, offering high accuracy in a narrower temperature range, typically up to 600-1000°C. They are commonly used for precise applications, such as laboratories and medical devices.

RTD Transition Lead Wire Style

RTD Transition Lead Wire Style features a transition area where the lead wires are connected to the RTD element, typically encapsulated for protection against environmental factors like moisture and mechanical stress. This style is ideal for industrial applications requiring robust and durable connections, providing flexibility for custom cable lengths.

RTD Tube and Lead Wire Style 

The RTD Tube & Lead Wire Style houses the RTD element within a protective tube, with lead wires extending from one end, ensuring mechanical and environmental protection. This design is well-suited for processes exposed to corrosive environments, high pressure, or mechanical wear, making it ideal for insertion into pipes or tanks.

RTD Miniature Connectors

RTD Miniature Connectors are small, compact connectors designed for quick and easy connections and disconnections, making them ideal for laboratory settings, test and measurement equipment, and portable applications. These connectors are perfect for scenarios where space is limited and frequent sensor replacements or recalibrations are needed.

RTD Standard Connectors

RTD Standard Connectors are larger and more robust than miniature connectors, providing secure and reliable connections suitable for industrial and process control applications. These connectors are ideal for permanent or semi-permanent installations where durability and signal integrity are crucial, ensuring reliable data transmission in harsh environments.
