duplex RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) sensor with a transition joint is a specialized type of RTD sensor used for temperature measurement in applications where the transition between two different materials or environments needs to be monitored accurately. The duplex RTD sensor consists of two RTD elements, usually made of platinum, with a transition joint that connects them. The transition joint is typically made of a different material, such as stainless steel or another metal, and serves as a transition point between two dissimilar materials or environments.
The duplex RTD sensor with a transition joint typically has a 3-wire or 4-wire configuration for accurate temperature measurement. The wiring configuration is chosen based on the desired accuracy and precision of the temperature measurement and the electrical characteristics of the RTD elements and the transition joint.
he temperature range of the duplex RTD sensor with a transition joint depends on the RTD elements and the transition joint material used. Platinum RTD elements can typically measure temperatures ranging from -200°C to 600°C or higher, depending on the specific RTD element material and application requirements. The temperature range of the transition joint material should be compatible with the materials being transitioned between and the temperature range being measured.
The accuracy and resolution of the duplex RTD sensor depend on the RTD elements, the transition joint material, and the wiring configuration. Duplex RTD sensors can typically achieve accuracies of ±0.1°C to ±1°C, with resolution ranging from 0.1°C to 0.01°C, depending on the model and specifications.
Duplex RTD sensors with transition joints are commonly used in various industrial applications, such as in chemical processing, oil and gas, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and other industries where accurate temperature measurement at transition points between materials or environments is critical. They are also used in scientific and research applications where precise temperature monitoring is required
