 What is a
TEMPERATURE
SENSOR ?
Industrial Sensor
• Detects and Responds
• Input from the Physical environment

Input
 Light
 Force
 Heat
 Motion
 Moisture
 Pressure
Common types of Industrial Sensor

• Temperature Sensor
• Heat Sensor
• Flow sensor
• Level Sensor
 Temperature Sensor
• A device that collects information about temperature and converts it into
specific values.
• Is a device that will transform the temperature into an electric signal
• Electric signal ranges in industrial applications to:
• 4-20 mA
• 1-5v
• 0-10v
• Widely used in various industries, such as:
• Medical Industry
• Food Industry
• Hydropower Station
• Petrochemical Industry
• Metallurgy Industry
• Printing
• Pharmaceutical Industry
Types of Temperature Sensors
Thermocouples
• Measures temperature
• Consists of two different types of metal
Variety of styles

Thermocouple probes Thermocouple probes Transition joint

with connectors Thermocouple probes
Variety of styles

Infrared Thermocouple Bar wire Thermocouple Thermocouple wire

RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector)

• As temperature changes, the resistance of metal changes

as well.
• Such metals like platinum, nickel, or cooper.
• Used in many industrial Scientific and OAM applications
such as water treatment plants, food processing
equipment, medical research, and pharmaceutical
manufacturing.
PT 100
• Platinum element
with 100 Ω
resistance at 0
degrees Celsius.
2 wire V.S 3 wire connection
 Thermistor
• Made of polymer or
ceramic material
• Cheaper
• Less accurate than RTDs
• Most available in two wire
configurations
 Two types of Thermistors
1. NTC (Negative Temperature
Temperature Coefficient)
Coefficient)
2. PTC (Positive
• Temperature increases • Temperature goes up as
the resistance will well the resistance goes
decreases up

Advantages of Temperature
Sensor
 Temperature sensors are low-cost, precise, and extremely
reliable in repeated experiments.
 They are desirable for both embedded and surface mount
applications.
 They have a faster response time because of the lower
thermal mass.
 The vibrating wire type is normally full-interchangeable. It
means that one indicator can be used for all sensors. It also
has a particular technology for verifying long-term stability,
simple and fast output.
