The Cu10 RTD temperature sensor consists of precision copper wire wound around a ceramic core. The winding is encapsulated with a high-temperature resin to provide electrical insulation. Copper sensors are designed to have a nominal resistance of 10Ω at 25°C, with a temperature coefficient α = 0.00427 Ohms/Ohms/°C. The most used tolerance class for copper sensors is ±0.2% @ 25°C.
Applications range from -190°C to 260°C
With advantages such as high thermal conductivity, stability, precision, and cost-effectiveness, copper temperature sensors are used in a variety of, industrial applications, including:
• Industrial process control
• Equipment manufacturing
• Heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration
• Automotive sector: engines, cooling systems, and fluid temperature measurement
• Household appliances: refrigerators, freezers, ovens, stoves, and dishwashers
• Medical and health equipment: sterilization, biomedical research, and medical devices
• Other applications:Industrial heaters, and soil temperature monitoring in agriculture
It's worth noting that RTD sensors also have applications in aerospace, electronics, scientific research, and smart homes. Their versatility, precision, and reliability make them essential tools for accurate temperature measurement.
