RTD Temperature Sensor with Terminal Head – Industrial Temperature Measurement

RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) sensors with terminal head are widely used for accurate, stable, and reliable temperature measurement in industrial and hygienic process applications. These sensors operate on the principle that the electrical resistance of a platinum element changes predictably with temperature, providing high precision and repeatability.

The RTD sensor is housed in a robust aluminum or stainless steel terminal head, which protects the electrical connections from dust, moisture, vibration, and harsh environmental conditions. The stainless steel probe is inserted directly into the process, while the terminal head allows easy wiring to temperature transmitters, controllers, or PLC systems.

RTD temperature sensors with head mounting are commonly used in food, dairy, beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, power, HVAC, and general industrial processes.
