RdF 29260 Platinum RTD Capsule 100 Ohms -50 Deg C to 232 Deg C

Ready-to-use Platinum RTD capsules are sealed in stainless steel. These capsules can outperform traditional more costly RTD assemblies over the -50°C to +232°C temperature range. Standard sheath diameters are completely sealed and ready to use:

• Convenience: These capsules are pre-assembled and sealed, eliminating the need for complex or delicate field assembly of traditional RTDs.
• Cost-Effectiveness: The text claims they outperform "more costly" traditional RTD assemblies within a specific temperature range (-50°C to +232°C). This suggests they might be a budget-friendly option for applications within that range.
• Durability: The stainless steel housing protects the internal components from harsh environments.
• Fast Response: The void-free construction ensures good thermal contact, leading to faster temperature readings.
