Thanks to a wide operating temperature range, platinum temperature sensors are used in applications ranging from cryogenics to red-hot automotive exhaust gas temperature monitoring. A linear resistance vs. temperature response simplifies signal processing. The DIN EN 60751 specification, which is identical to the IEC 60751 specification, defines the resistance vs. temperature response and tolerance classes, ensuring sensor interchangeability. Excellent long-term stability and easy packaging in protective housings provides temperature sensing solutions for a wide variety of applications.
