RTD temperature measurement
Technology, construction and benefits of resistance temperature detectors (RTD)
When measuring temperature, the choice of the sensor is one of the most important decisions to make. Thermocouples (TCs) and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are commonly used in industrial applications. Proven in the process industry for decades, RTDs work on the principle that the electrical resistance of the sensor metal increases as the temperature rises. This change in resistance is measured and converted into temperature readings.

What are RTDs?
Resistance temperature detector types
An RTD sensor is typically a length of wire made from a pure metal such as platinum, nickel, or copper. It is available either as a thin film sensor, where the wire is placed in a ceramic body, or as a wire wound in a helix construction around a glass or ceramic bobbin. The most commonly used RTDs are platinum Pt100 sensors (industry standard). The 100 in Pt100 represents the nominal resistance of 100 ohms at 0°C (32°F).
The Pt100 sensor is also known as a PTC, which stands for "positive temperature coefficient", meaning that the resistance increases as the temperature rises. A Pt100 RTD is suitable for the measurement of temperatures between -200°C (300°F) and +850°C (1562°F), depending on the sensor and the design. It is important to note that RTD sensors do not follow an ideal linear temperature-resistance curve and, unfortunately, the RTD becomes less linear as the temperature rises. The use of temperature transmitters can compensate these non-linearities. Endress+Hauser developed innovative, patented sensor technologies such as the iTHERM StrongSens with highest vibration resistance, the fast-responding sensor iTHERM QuickSens and the iTHERM TrustSens with self-calibration function. Endress+Hauser RTD instruments meet the IEC 60751 accuracy class A as standard.
The right sensor element for your application
Several factors influence the choice between TC and RTD thermometers, all of which depend on the specific application requirements.
Accuracy: RTDs are generally more accurate than TCs, especially in lower temperature ranges
Temperature range: TCs are suitable for higher temperature measurements, while RTDs are usually used for lower temperature measurements
Response time: TCs are normally faster responding than RTD thermometers
Durability: TCs can withstand harsher environments (pressure, vibration, corrosive environment etc.) than RTDs
Cost: In general, TCs are less expensive than RTD temperature sensors
Reliability: TCs are more susceptible to electromagnetic interference than RTDs
Material choice: Compared to RTD temperature sensors, TCs only offer a limited number of options for the specific temperature ranges
