Darts low temperature sensors – pt500 platinum resistor – gas temperature measurement


Car manufacturers face increasing challenges. Technological requirements are continuously stepped up due to the demand for performance, safety, efficiency and clean emissions. Sensor-NITE accepts this challenge. It is our mission to achieve higher efficiency through an optimal control, resulting in reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions.

 


Characteristics
Sensor Element PT-500 platinum resistor
Measurement Principle The resistance of the PT-500 element increases with temperature based on the positive temperature coefficient of platinum electrical resistance
Temperature Range Continuous: -40°C to 300°C Peak: 500°C
Accuracy ± 2.5°C from -40°C to 160°C
± 1.5% from 160°C to 300°C (including 500 hours ageing at 300°C)
Connector MLK-connector directly on sensor

 

Applications
Protect Engine and Exhaust Components
Diagnose Systems for OBD (e.g. EGR)
Control System Operation (Regulate Temperature Windows of Systems)

 

Advantages
Thin Film Platinum temperature sensors are a proven technology for exhaust gas temperature measurements with many applications running for all levels of emission standards worldwide
Optimal cost versus robustness properties by use of stainless steel material
Fast response time by reduced tip diameter and thermal decoupling especially at high gas velocities
High absolute accuracy up to 300ºC by thermal decoupling of measurement element and housing
High linearity
Flexibility in insertion depth: 25mm, 35mm, 40mm, 50mm, 70mm
Straight and bended configurations for rear housing, 0º to 90º to facilitate installation on the engine (more information can be found at the tailor made sensors section)
Fail safe
