Thin-Film RTD Elements Rival Wire-Wound Components

The F2020 Series platinum, thin-film RTD elements are allegedly equal in accuracy to many wire wound elements while delivering a much faster response. Temperature range is from -70°C to +500°C and they are available in a range of configurations with Class-A, Class-B, and 13 DIN accuracy ratings. Capable of deployment in tight quarters, the elements measure 2 mm x 2 mm x 0.8 mm and are suitable for use in gas chromatography, lab freezers and ovens, pharmaceuticals, meat processing, semiconductor manufacturing, automotive testing, HVAC, chemical, water petroleum, appliance, machine building, and IC manufacturing applications. Prices start at $0.75 each/100 for the Model No. F2020-100-B. OMEGA ENGINEERING INC., Stamford, CT. (203) 359-1660.
