By far the most common devices used in industry have a nominal resistance of 100 ohms at 0 °C and are called Pt100 sensors ("Pt" is the symbol for platinum, "100" for the resistance in ohms at 0 °C). It is also possible to get Pt1000 sensors, where 1000 is for the resistance in ohms at 0 °C.
The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...
The Callendar–Van Dusen equation is an equation that describes the relationship between resistance (R) and temperature (T) of platinum resistance thermometers (RTD).. As commonly used for commercial applications of RTD thermometers, the relationship between resistance and temperature is given by the following equations.
The commercial product, YSZ oxygen sensor, [1] is an example of type I. Type II sensors do not have mobile ions of the chemical species to be sensed, but an ion related to the target gas can diffuse in the solid electrolyte to allow equilibration with the atmosphere.
For example, some laser power meters are based on such sensors; these are specifically known as thermopile laser sensor. The principle of operation of a thermopile sensor is distinct from that of a bolometer , as the latter relies on a change in resistance.
A calibrated solar device can be used to measure the present sunlight irradiance and a temperature sensor (like a Pt100) to measure the cell temperature of the module under investigation. To measure the IV curve of a single module, portable devices, so called IV curve tracers, are available. [4]
Distributed temperature sensing systems (DTS) are optoelectronic devices which measure temperatures by means of optical fibres functioning as linear sensors. Temperatures are recorded along the optical sensor cable, thus not at points, but as a continuous profile. A high accuracy of temperature determination is achieved over great distances.
PT100 or PT-100 may refer to: A type of the Taurus PT92 pistol; A type of resistance thermometer; Panzerfaust, a German anti-tank weapon of World War II
