This document discusses resistance temperature detectors (RTDs). It explains that RTDs detect changes in temperature by measuring changes in the electrical resistance of a wire as temperature varies. Common wire materials used in RTDs include platinum, nickel, copper, and others. RTDs offer advantages like a wide temperature measurement range, good accuracy, and long-term stability. They are often used in temperature measurement and control applications like furnaces and laboratories.
RTDs measure temperature by detecting changes in electrical resistance of a wire as temperature varies. There are two types based on whether resistance increases or decreases with temperature. RTDs are used in bridge circuits where changes in resistance produce voltage changes proportional to temperature. Thermocouples use the Seebeck effect where different metals produce voltage when joined and subjected to a temperature gradient. Common types include J, K, B, S, T, and R which vary in sensitivity and measurable temperature range. Both RTDs and thermocouples require signal conditioning due to their small voltage outputs and are calibrated using a temperature indicator, controller, and oven.

Tempsens Instruments manufactures temperature sensors including thermocouples and RTDs. Thermocouples measure unknown temperatures by creating two junctions - one at the object being measured and another at a reference object of known temperature. RTDs use metals that change electrical resistance with temperature, with platinum being most common; platinum RTDs are designated as Pt100. Temperature sensors have applications in industries such as cement, power, steel, glass, petrochemical, and chemicals.
esistance thermometers, also called resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), are sensors used to measure temperature. Many RTD elements consist of a length of fine wire wrapped around a ceramic or glass core but other constructions are also used. The RTD wire is a pure material, typically platinum, nickel, or copper. The material has an accurate resistance/temperature relationship which is used to provide an indication of temperature. As RTD elements are fragile, they are often housed in protective probes.
Resistance thermometers are constructed in a number of forms and offer greater stability, accuracy and repeatability in some cases than thermocouples. While thermocouples use the Seebeck effect to generate a voltage, resistance thermometers use electrical resistance and require a power source to operate. The resistance ideally varies nearly linearly with temperature per the Callendar–Van Dusen equation.
The platinum detecting wire needs to be kept free of contamination to remain stable. A platinum wire or film is supported on a former in such a way that it gets minimal differential expansion or other strains from its former, yet is reasonably resistant to vibration. RTD assemblies made from iron or copper are also used in some applications. Commercial platinum grades exhibit a temperature coefficient of resistance 0.00385/°C (0.385%/°C) (European Fundamental Interval).[7] The sensor is usually made to have a resistance of 100 Ω at 0 °C. This is defined in BS EN 60751:1996 (taken from IEC 60751:1995). The American Fundamental Interval is 0.00392/°C,[8] based on using a purer grade of platinum than the European standard. The American standard is from the Scientific Apparatus Manufacturers Association (SAMA), who are no longer in this standards field. As a result, the "American standard" is hardly the standard even in the US.
Lead-wire resistance can also be a factor; adopting three- and four-wire, instead of two-wire, connections can eliminate connection-lead resistance effects from measurements (see below); three-wire connection is sufficient for most purposes and is an almost universal industrial practice. Four-wire connections are used for the most precise applications.

An optical pyrometer is a non-contact thermometer that measures the temperature of objects by detecting their electromagnetic radiation. It works by comparing the brightness of the object to a calibrated lamp filament. The observer adjusts the lamp's current until its brightness matches the object, allowing the temperature to be determined. Optical pyrometers are accurate to within +/-5 degrees Celsius and are useful for measuring high temperatures between 1000-5000°F in applications like furnaces or molten materials where direct contact is not possible.
This document discusses different types of bimetallic thermometers used for temperature measurement in industrial environments. It describes how bimetallic thermometers work using two metals with different coefficients of thermal expansion joined together. When temperature changes, the differential expansion causes the bimetallic strip to twist, rotating a pointer to indicate the temperature reading on a calibrated scale. Common configurations include a spiral strip or coil design to translate thermal expansion into rotational movement. While simple and inexpensive, bimetallic thermometers have limitations such as accuracy below 400°C and potential for permanent deformation over time.
Thermocouples are temperature measurement devices that operate based on the Seebeck effect. They produce a voltage when two dissimilar metals are joined together at both ends and there is a temperature difference between the ends.

A thermocouple measures temperature by using the Seebeck effect produced between two different metals that are joined together at two points. One junction is placed at the body being measured (hot junction) while the other is placed at a reference body of known temperature (cold junction). This generates a voltage based on the temperature difference between the two junctions. The thermocouple works by using the Seebeck, Peltier, and Thomson effects - where a voltage is produced due to the temperature difference across the two junctions of dissimilar metals. The voltage produced can then be measured to determine the temperature of the hot junction relative to the cold junction.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

4. INTRODUCTION
• Sir William siemens prefer the use
of platinum as the element in a
RTD.
• The classical resistance
temperature detector (RTD)
Construction using platinum was
proposed by C.H. Meyars in 1932
5. RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE DETECTOR(RTD’S)
Resistance Thermometers are the
sensors used to measure
temperature by comparing the
resistance of the RTD element
with Temperature
RTD converts the temperature
into the electrical resistance
,which can be measured using the
wheatstone Bridges
A Wheatstone bridge is
an electrical circuit used to
measure an unknown electrical
resistance
6. PT 100
• PT-100 is a platinum RTD which
is most widely use in industries
• The resistance of the PT-100 RTD
is 100 Ω at 0 °C.
• Resistance Temperature of
platinum is 0.00392 °C
9. RTD’S CONFIGURATIONS
• RTD is available in basically three
configurations
• Two wire compensation
• Three wire compensation
• Four wire compensation
10. • Two wire compensation:-
• The 2 wire RTD configuration is
the simplest among RTD circuit
designs. In this serial
configuration, a single lead wire
connects each end of the RTD
element to the monitoring device.
11. • Three wire compensation:-
• The 3 wire RTD configuration is
the most commonly used RTD
circuit design and can be seen in
industrial process and monitoring
applications.
12. Four wire compensation:-
This configuration is the most
complex and thus the most time-
consuming and expensive to install,
but it produces the most accurate
results.
15. APPLICATIONS OF RTD’S
• Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration
• Food processing
• Grills
• Plastics processing
• Petrochemical process
• Air temperature measurement
• Gas temperature measurement
• Liquid temperature measurement
• Exhaust gas temperature
measurement
16. ADVANTAGES OF RTD SENSORS
• RTD sensors have many
advantages.
Highly accurate
High repeatability
Offer precise measurement even
in extreme environments
Long term stability
Platinum RTD are suitable for
higher temperature ranges
No special wire required for
installation
Easy Installation
•
17. DISADVANTAGE OF RTD SENSOR
The RTD require more complex
measurement circuit.
More limited temperature range
(-200 deg C to 500 deg C)
High initial price
Slower response time than a
thermocouple
Possibility of self heating.
• It is affected by shock and
vibration.
