How do 2, 3 and 4 wire pt100 temperature sensors work? To understand how 2, 3 and 4 wire pt100 temperature sensors work you must first understand what a temperature sensor is, what a PT100 is, and what the 2,3 and 4 wires are for. What is a temperature sensor? A Temperature sensor is a […]

Pt100 temperature sensors are very common sensors in the process industry. This blog post discusses many useful and practical things to know about the them, including information on RTD and PRT sensors, different Pt100 mechanical structures, the temperature-resistance relationship, temperature coefficients, accuracy classes and much more. A while back I wrote about thermocouples, so I was thinking […]
