The averaging RTD sensor measures the temperature over the entire sheath length to provide an average temperature measurement of the cross sectional area of air ducts, room gradient temperatures, and other low temperature averaging applications.
The sensing element has a resistance output that conforms to a 100 Ω platinum element with a 0.003 85 ºC-1 temperature coefficient within a measurement range of 0 to 100 ºC [32 to 212] ºF.
The RTD sensors are available in copper or 316 stainless steel sheath materials and can be supplied in various lengths up to 800 inches. All RTD sensors 48 inches and longer will be shipped in a coiled configuration.
