Pt100 and Pt1000 are the most widely used RTD sensors, but there is a difference between them. Find out which one you need for your application.

A Pt1000 sensor is better for battery-operated applications. A sensor with a higher nominal resistance uses less electrical current and, therefore, requires less power to operate. Lower power consumption extends battery life and the interval between maintenance, reducing downtime and …

Discover all about pt1000 sensors. From their definition, working principle, calibration, checks and much more. Read now.

A Pt 1000 is a type of resistance temperature sensor, similar to Pt100s but made using a Platinum element with a resistance of 1000 ohms @ 0ºC and typically with a 385 ohm fundamental interval (change in resistance over the range 0 to 100ºC).

The PT1000 is a temperature sensitive resistor. The resistance increases with rising temperature which means it has a positive temperature coefficient. The nearly linear characteristic makes it a precise and high performance choice suitable for use in measurements and control systems. Typical Applications

Pt1000 sensors are part of the group of temperature sensors called Resistance Temperature Detectors or RTDs for short. They use the principle of changing electrical resistance with changing temperature for the measurement of temperature.

2025年1月7日 · Pt1000 sensors are better suited for battery-powered applications. Sensors with higher nominal resistance use less current and therefore require less power to operate. Lower power consumption extends battery life and maintenance intervals, reducing downtime and costs.

2024年12月8日 · PT1000 sensors are a specific type of RTD sensor with a resistance of 1000 ohms at 0°C. This higher base resistance compared to the PT100 sensor (which has 100 ohms at 0°C) provides several advantages in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, and stability.

2021年8月13日 · A pt1000 sensor is more suited to applications that run on battery power, while their reduced self-heating when compared to pt100 means fewer inaccuracies in readings. Pt1000s are usually only available with thin-film element constructions.

Pt1000 screw-in sensors are used for temperature monitoring and protection against thermal overload in electrical machines and systems. Due to the clear assignment of the temperature to the measured resistance value, this can be used to display temperatures and subsequently to protect or control machines or systems.
