SRC offers you technical assistance and online resources with the aim of solving any doubt regarding temperature management in your company.
Introduction to temperature sensors
The most common temperature sensors are thermocouples and PT100. The thermocouple is an extremely simple and reliable sensor that is made up of two metallic materials of different nature joined by two junctions called “cold junction” and “hot junction”. The degree of temperature detected by these junctions generates a potential difference closely dependent on the nature of the materials.
Table of tolerances for PT100 probes according to UNE EN 60751
Depending on the type and model of PT100 sensor that we use, the probe will have one or another precision. In these tables you will see the different accuracies of the PT100 sensors and their values at different temperatures.
Connection types of PT100 sensors
PT100 sensors can be connected in different ways depending on the length and precision that we need. Here you will find the different connection methods of the PT100 probes. Consult the characteristics or request our technical assistance.
Compensation and Extension Cable Color Code
The different types of compensation and extension cables are defined by colors depending on the different regulations. Here you will find the different types of cables as well as the existing regulations. SRC manufactures its sensors under IEC (International) Regulations.
Table of thermocouple tolerances UNE-EN 60584-2
Depending on the type and model of thermocouple that we use, the pyrometric cane will have one or another precision. As part of our technical assistance, we provide you with tables with the different accuracies of thermocouples and their values at different temperatures.
Emissivity tables for infrared sensors
Infrared sensors measure on the surfaces of objects. These surfaces have different emissivities to which we must adjust these sensors. Here you will find the emissivities of a wide variety of materials with which you can configure our sensors.
IP protection degrees
The IEC 60529 standard describes a system for classifying the degrees of protection provided to electrical equipment by the containers that protect them. This standard is designed to numerically rate a product on the level of protection that its container provides. By assigning different numerical codes, the degree of protection of the product can be identified quickly and easily.
INOX corrosion tables
PT100 probes and thermocouples can be submerged in liquids and environments that can be corrosive. Here you will find corrosion tables for different products and materials. For any questions, contact our technical assistance.
