The SPIR-002-1000 is a type of RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) probe manufactured by Omega Engineering. RTDs are temperature sensors that utilize the principle of resistance change in a metal, in this case, likely Platinum (Pt100 or Pt1000), as temperature varies. This particular model, SPIR-002-1000, is designed for immersion or insertion into a process to measure temperature directly. The ‘1000’ likely refers to its nominal resistance at 0°C, suggesting it's a Pt1000 RTD.

Applications

• Industrial Temperature Monitoring
• Process Control
• HVAC Systems
• Food and Beverage Processing
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Features

• Pt1000 RTD Element (assumed based on '1000' in part number)
• Immersion/Insertion Probe Design
• Stainless Steel Sheath (typical for durability)
• Various Termination Options (e.g., lead wires, connector)
• Wide Temperature Range (consult datasheet for specific range)
• High Accuracy and Stability

Benefits

• Provides accurate and reliable temperature measurement in various industrial applications.
• Offers a robust and durable design for long-term performance in harsh environments.
• Suitable for direct immersion or insertion into the process medium being measured.
• Easy to integrate into existing systems with various termination options.
• Ensures consistent and precise temperature control for critical processes.

Additional Details

The SPIR-002-1000 RTD probe is constructed with a sensing element, commonly Platinum, encased within a protective stainless steel sheath. The sheath provides protection from corrosion and physical damage, allowing the sensor to be used in demanding industrial environments. The RTD element's resistance changes proportionally to the temperature being measured. This resistance change is then converted to a temperature reading by a temperature transmitter or controller. A Pt1000 RTD has a resistance of 1000 ohms at 0°C, offering higher sensitivity compared to Pt100 RTDs.

The probe design facilitates direct immersion or insertion into liquids, gases, or solids. The specific operating temperature range, accuracy, and other specifications should be verified with the product datasheet. These RTD probes are frequently used in chemical processing, oil and gas, and other industries where precise temperature control is essential.
