RTD sensors will never exhibit behavior based on theoretical ideals, but understanding the fundamentals behind transmitter-sensor matching will enhance their accuracy Temperature is the most common ...

Endress+Hauser’s iTHERM TrustSens hygienic RTD is heralded as the world’s first self-calibrating temperature sensor. Its self-calibration process functions in situ and provides the necessary ...

The old saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” cautions against tampering with something that performs reliably and regularly proves its worth. Arguably, this advice applies to the circuit design ...

November 17, 2017—Endress+Hauser announced the iTHERM TrustSens hygienic RTD, the self-calibrating temperature sensor. TrustSens’ self-calibration process functions in situ and provides the necessary ...

Designing an analog circuit can be a frustrating experience, as noted by Nick Cornford in his Design Idea (DI), “DIY RTD for a DMM.” With a fortnight’s struggle, I completed the design of 4 mA to 20mA ...

The nickel-thin-film RTD (resistance-temperature-detector) sensors provide a large change resistance in response to temperature changes at a lower cost than nickel wirewound RTD elements. The sensors ...

Temperature doesn’t change very quickly, and temperature sensors match that characteristic. Environmental temperature changes are generally slow, on the order of less than 0.1 sec/°C. Typical ...
