Description
Industrial PT100 RTD Sensor (Model APES-6×50) is a compact, general-purpose temperature sensor designed for reliable measurement in industrial processes, manufacturing plants, HVAC systems, chemical facilities, and automation equipment. It incorporates a PT100 RTD sensing element housed in a durable SS316 stainless steel sheath, delivering stable and repeatable temperature measurement from -50°C to +400°C.
Its 3-wire configuration helps reduce lead resistance errors, improving measurement accuracy when connected to PLCs, temperature transmitters, controllers, and industrial monitoring systems. The compact 50 mm probe is well suited for installations where space is limited while still providing fast thermal response.
The sensor is supplied with a 3-meter Teflon/Teflon insulated cable for dependable operation in demanding industrial environments. Aavad also offers customization of probe length, sheath diameter, cable length, process connection, and accuracy class to meet specific application requirements.
