Your choices are... | |||
Noncontact Infrared Temperature Sensor | Non-contact 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. | ||
