About Temperature Sensors - RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector)


Resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are temperature sensing devices based on the principle of electrical resistance change with temperature variation in metals such as platinum, nickel, or copper. RTDs exhibit a predictable change in resistance with temperature, allowing accurate temperature measurement and monitoring. RTDs offer advantages such as high accuracy, stability, and linearity over a wide temperature range, making them ideal for precision temperature sensing applications in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and process control. RTDs are commonly used in temperature measurement instruments, temperature controllers, and thermal management systems where precise and reliable temperature monitoring is essential for optimizing performance, ensuring product quality, and enhancing safety.
