Temperature Sensors

Turck presents a new series of compact temperature sensors with processing electronics integrated into the M12x1-connector. The miniature sensor uses Pt1000 measuring elements for temperature measurement in small spaces. Being only 25 mm longer and 1.5 mm wider than a standard M12x1 connector, the fully encapsulated sensors provide an output signal of 4...20 mA in 2-wire technology. Like the TP sensors, the standard miniature transmitters work with mineral insulated probes and the probe length is selectable: In addition to standard probes with diameters of 3 mm and 6 mm and available in lengths of 100 mm and 150 mm, the supplier offers screw-in type probes with G1/8" male thread in lengths of 13 mm and 24 mm. Depending on the type, the transmitters are made for temperature ranges of -50...+50 °C, 0...+100 °C, 0...+150 °C and -50...+150 °C. Customized solutions are available on request. All standardized thermo wells and compression fittings from the Turck product portfolio can be used with the new sensors.
