This document provides an overview of industrial temperature measurement. It discusses different temperature scales and units used in engineering. Common temperature measurement devices are described, including liquid-in-glass thermometers, bimetallic thermometers, resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), and thermocouples. RTDs and thermocouples are electrical sensors that change resistance or voltage, respectively, with temperature. Each device type has advantages and limitations for different applications and temperature ranges. Proper setup and wiring is important to reduce measurement errors from reference junctions or lead wire resistances.
