Functional engineering application
The 3 Wire 5mm PT100 Temperature Sensor is a high-accuracy Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) engineered for precise temperature control in liquid processing, HVAC, tea drying, and packaging machinery. Featuring a thin 5mm diameter 304 stainless steel probe sheath, a Class A high-purity platinum element (100 ohms at 0°C), and 3-wire lead compensation, this sensor eliminates lead resistance errors for pin-point accuracy across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, and Burundi.
High-precision 3-wire 5mm diameter PT100 RTD temperature sensor probe with Class A platinum element (-50°C to +300°C) and SS braid lead.
