Nickel Temperature Sensors

Preface

We have manufactured and developed thin film nickel temperature measuring resistors for over 25 years.
Of all the metals, nickel has the highest thermal change of resistance and subsequently provides a higher measurement signal.

Nickel measuring resistors have been used since the beginning of electronic heating regulation, air-conditioning and ventilation of buildings and systems.
They are also used in industrial measuring and automation technology.

Used by heating manufacturers and their suppliers, makers of sensors, and manufacturers of process automats and laboratory measuring equipment.

Features

• metal film resistor with excellent long-term properties
• bearing material is ceramic with good heat conductivity
• All the standard characteristics in Europe and the USA are available.
• high accuracy due to laser trimming
• great thermal sensitivity
• Simple passive linearization of the measurement signal is possible.
• Various base values, designs and connection types in store.
• Other custom models possible.
