|
| ||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Noncontact Infrared Temperature Sensor | Non-contact temperature infrared temperature sensors are used medical devices and other products. | ||
| RTD Element | RTD (resistive temperature device) elements are wire windings or other thin-film serpentines that exhibit changes in resistance with changes in temperature. | ||
| Thermistor Element | Thermistor elements are thermally-sensitive devices whose electrical resistance varies with temperature. | ||
| Thermocouple Element | Thermocouple elements are temperature sensors that are useful over a wide range of temperatures. Thermocouples are formed by two dissimilar metals. | ||
| Temperature Probe | Temperature probes may be used for various temperature-sensing applications. They are configured with a variety of different temperature sensors, including thermocouples, RTDs, and thermistors. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||

| ||
| Measurement/Display Range (°F) | The temperature range in degrees Farhenheit (°F) to be sensed or monitored. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
| Allowable Sensor Over-Range |
Overrange specification limits the range of matching products to the specified
range multiplied by a selected overrange factor. This keeps returned matches
close to the range requirement and filters out products with a wider range
than needed. "From", "To", and "Overrange" must all be specified to
activate this option. Example: User specifies a sensor with a range from 0-100. Without overrange specification, sensors with ranges of 0-100, 0-1000, and -10,000 to +10,000 are returned as matches. An overrange specification of 50% will filter out any sensors with a full scale range greater than 150. | ||
| Search Logic: | Matching products will have a range within the specified overrange limit. | ||
| Measurement/Display Range (°C) | The temperature range in degrees Celsius (°C) to be sensed or monitored. | ||
| Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
