Temperature Sensors

Temperature Sensors
Temperature sensors
There are two types of temperature sensors; a contact type and a non-contact type.
A contact type temperature sensor is placed into contact with the measured object and measures the temperature when the heat balance is reached. This kind of sensors includes thermocouples, platinum resistance temperature detector (RTD) and thermistors.
RKC supplies various thermocouples and platinum resistance temperature detectors.
A non-contact temperature sensor detects infrared radiation emitted from the measured object and measures the temperature from the radiation amount. A radiation temperature sensor belongs to this category.

Temperature/Humidity sensors
This sensor detects moisture percentage in the ambient atmosphere simultaneously with temperature.
We use a highly accurate high polymer resistance-type sensor.
