Platinum resistance thermometers (PRTs)
offer excellent accuracy over a wide temperature range (from -200 to
850°C). Sensors are interchangeable between different manufacturers,
and are available in various accuracy ratings and packages to suit
most applications. Unlike thermocouples, it is not necessary to use
special cables to connect to the sensor.
Pico Technology supplies sensors (see below) that comply with BS1904 class B (DIN 43760): these sensors offer an accuracy of
+/-0.3 at 0°C. For increased accuracy we also supply tenth-DIN sensors (+/-0.03 at 0 °C). Please note that these accuracy specifications relate to the SENSOR ONLY. It is necessary to add the sensor error to the PT-104 error.
