Temperature Measurement


Temperature sensor with drift monitoring

October 2018 Temperature Measurement

The sensors of ifm electronics’ TAD series have two resistance elements with different characteristics (PT and NTC) that monitor each other permanently in the process. Drift is immediately detected and signalled, which increases the process reliability. All three process values (mean, PT element and NTC element) can be documented via IO-Link. This ensures permanent transparency for quality management, while calibration intervals can be adapted or dispensed with.

Precise 5-point calibration from the factory

Due to a 5-point temperature adjustment during the production process, the TAD temperature sensor features an accuracy of 0,2 K in the range from -10 to 130°C. Visit ifm at Electra Mining Africa Expo 10-14 September in hall 7, stand C01 to view live product demonstrations as well as other new and innovative technology offerings.
