Industrial Process and Sensor offers RTDs for use in Stator Cores. This Element allows you to read the temperature of your Generator Stator or any other Rotor system to help prevent downtimes and detect problems early on.

Our elements are built to your specs and requirements, cuttable versions are available.
Also offer a few different options to use as a basis for your Design.
Some options include:
Rear exit cabling
Side exit Cabling
Paddle Style
Trimmable

Advantages of platinum resistance thermometers:

• High accuracy
• Low drift
• Wide operating range
• Suitable for precision applications

Limitations:

• RTDs in industrial applications are rarely used above 660 °C. At temperatures above 660 °C it becomes increasingly difficult to prevent the platinum from becoming contaminated by impurities from the metal sheath of the thermometer. This is why laboratory standard thermometers replace the metal sheath with a glass construction. At very low temperatures, say below -270 °C (or 3 K), due to the fact that there are very few phonons, the resistance of an RTD is mainly determined by impurities and boundary scattering and thus basically independent of temperature. As a result, the sensitivity of the RTD is essentially zero and therefore not useful.
• Compared to thermistors, platinum RTDs are less sensitive to small temperature changes and have a slower response time. However, thermistors have a smaller temperature range and stability.
