Screw-In RTD Temperature Probe with Cable | Pt100 Sensor

A. Product Overview

The Screw-In RTD Temperature Probe with Cables is used for direct and stable temperature measurement in industrial applications where a strong process connection is required. It is suitable for measuring temperatures in liquid and gaseous media, as well as direct surface or housing measurement in machinery, bearing housings and machine assemblies.

This sensor is commonly used in machinery, plant measurement, vessel measurement, tank measurement, industrial process control and pharmaceutical applications. It is available with metric and imperial threaded connections, helping create reliable sealing for vacuum and pressurised applications.

Key Specifications

Element: Pt100 Simplex
Temperature Range: -50 to 500 °C
Tip: 5 mm diameter and 50 mm length optional
Connection: M8 optional
Wire Length: 0.5 meter to 5 meter
Accuracy: Class A or Class B as per IEC-60751

B. Working Principle

The Screw-In RTD Temperature Probe works on the resistance temperature detector principle. The Pt100 element inside the sensor changes its electrical resistance according to the temperature.

When the sensor tip comes in contact with the liquid, gas, machine body, bearing housing or process area, it senses the temperature and sends the resistance signal through the cable to a temperature controller, indicator, transmitter or monitoring system. The connected device then converts this resistance value into a temperature reading.

The screw-in threaded connection ensures firm installation, good contact and stable measurement in industrial environments.

C. Why It Is Used

This sensor is used when accurate, stable and long-term temperature measurement is required in industrial systems. The screw-in design provides a robust connection and helps prevent loose fitting, leakage or unstable readings.

It is preferred because it can be used for both liquid and gas temperature measurement and can also be installed in machinery and process assemblies. It is suitable for applications where temperature needs to be monitored in tanks, vessels, pipelines, bearings, machine housings, pharmaceutical equipment and process control systems.
