Temperature probes with improved response time from ifm electronic


Product quality often relies on monitoring and control of temperatures. Temperatures need to be measured accurately, and temperature changes must to be tracked with the minimum of delay.

This is, exactly, the approach with the TT temperature sensors from ifm electronic: They guarantee accurate and reliable processes due to their fast response times.

In addition to an improved response time of T05 = 1 s and T09 = 3 s the integrated class A Pt1000 sensor element enables accurate temperature measurements. So temperature fluctuations can be detected even more quickly and precisely. The measuring range is between -40 °C to 150 °C.

The high protection rating IP 67 and high-grade stainless steel housing material ensure long life of the sensor in industrial applications, in hygienic areas and when viscous media are used. The TT design is available in 6, 8 or 10 mm diameters. Probes of 110 mm to 560 mm allow variable installation depths.

As an option, the sensor can be additionally protected using a thermowell and directly process the measured temperatures via the TR control monitor.
So the probes can be integrated into almost any application using process adapters and standardised M12 connectors.
