What is a Pt100/0 measuring resistor?
Pt100/0 measuring resistors are electrical resistors routinely used as sensor elements in resistance thermometers for technical temperature measurement. This resistor is made of the purest platinum and reaches 100 Ohm at 0°C.
As the temperature rises, the intrinsic resistance of the Pt100 also increases, reaching 138.5 ohms at 100°C.
The Pt100/0 measuring resistor is available in two models as standard: as a wirewound resistor and a flat-film measuring resistor.
The wirewound resistor is wound around a ceramic or glass mandrel and protected from external influences by ceramic or glass housing.
A ceramic substrate is coated in platinum for the flat film measuring resistor. This platinum layer features meandering conductor paths and is sealed with ceramic or glass adhesive.
Both resistor types are equipped with pins.
