Sensor Elements
Every year many millions of temperature sensors, produced in platinum thin-film technology, leave Heraeus Sensor Technology's factory. Depending on the field of application four main groups are available; for cryogenic (from -196°C), low (up to +400°C), medium (up to +600°C) and high (up to +1000°C) measurement temperatures. Versions with resistance values of 100, 200, 500, 1,000 and 10,000 ohm are available.
The chemical stability of initial materials, their tested purity and homogeneity, provide an important foundation for the well-known long-term stability and the reproducibility of the measurements over thousands of measurement cycles.
Special glazes from Heraeus Sensor Technology almost completely eliminate effects due to moisture, climatic or other ambient influences. The product group of wire-lead temperature sensor elements also includes particularly narrow types of sensor for mounting in protective tubes with a small internal diameter.
This also applies to sensors with connection leads for the substitution of conventional, wound Pt temperature probes by current versions of the HD and HA series in thin-film technology. The wide knowledge base of Heraeus Sensor Technology is available any time to the company's customers in the development of customer-specific special versions.
