We’ll talk about how the RTD works and how it’s used in industry to measure temperature. We’re also going to discuss regular maintenance, calibration, and troubleshooting of RTD circuits. We'll learn about the methods of determining temperature

19K views · 1K reactions | An #RTD is commonly used to measure temperature by passing a current through it and analyzing the resulting voltage. Its linear resistance-temperature relationship, especially exemplified by the Pt100 RTD, makes it a preferred choice for temperature measurement. This linear relationship allows for straightforward derivation of temperature from resistance, simplifying temperature measurement processes. #temperature_measurement | RealPars | Facebook

Examine the key components of an RTD: - Resistance or Sensing Element: This component is the temperature-detecting part of the RTD, often a metal wire made from materials like platinum, copper, or nickel. - Protecting Tubing: Typically constructed from stainless steel, providing protection in environments up to 500°F. - Process Connection: A standard fitting for integration. - Wire Configurations: RTDs come in various wire configurations, including 2, 3, and 4 wire setups, with the 3 wire RTD be
