Industrial platinum resistance thermometers and platinum temperature sensors

IEC 60751:2008 specifies the requirements and temperature/resistance relationship for industrial platinum resistance temperature sensors later referred to as "platinum resistors" or "resistors" and industrial platinum resistance thermometers later referred to as "thermometers" whose electrical resistance is a defined function of temperature. Values of temperature in this standard are in terms of the International Temperature Scale of 1990, ITS-90. Temperatures in degrees Celsius are denoted by the symbol t, except in Table 1 where the full nomenclature t90/°C is used. The standard covers resistors or thermometers for all or part of the temperature range 200 °C to +850 °C with different tolerance classes, which may cover restricted temperature ranges. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1983, amendment 1 (1986) and amendment 2 (1995). It constitutes a technical revision. The significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows: While the temperature/resistance relationship in 4.2 remains unchanged, there are several changes in the other chapters. Most important are: tolerance classes follow a new scheme; tolerance acceptance test is included; hysteresis test is included; several changes in the individual tests; appendices are deleted.

Industrial platinum resistance thermometer sensors

Specifies requirements for industrial platinum resistance thermometer sensors suitable for all or parts of the temperature range -200°C to +850°C with two tolerance classes. It is primarily concerned with sheathed elements suitable for immersion in the medium to be measured. Describes methods of test and suitable apparatus for some of the tests.

Industrial platinum resistance thermometers and platinum temperature sensors

IEC 60751:2022 specifies the requirements, in addition to the resistance versus temperature relationship, for both industrial platinum resistance thermometers (later referred to as "thermometers") and industrial platinum resistance temperature sensors (later referred to as "platinum resistors") whose electrical resistance is derived from defined functions of temperature. Values of temperature in this document are in terms of the International Temperature Scale of 1990, ITS-90. A temperature in the unit °C of this scale is denoted by the symbol t, except in Table A.1 where the full nomenclature t90 /°C is used.
