Temperature Sensors
About our Temperature Sensors
In many industrial processes the temperature of the machine or machine components plays a fundamental role. A temperature switch or temperature sensor can measure temperature in a number of ways and use this information as part of a processed controlled application. There are a wide range of different temperature sensors available for application specific purposes.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a Temperature Transmitter?
-
In essence, a temperature transmitter is an electrical instrument which works with a temperature sensor to isolate, amplify and filter noise. They then convert any signal they receive from the temperature sensor, and relay it back to the control device.
- What are the benefits of using a Temperature Sensor?
-
A number of industries have strict requirements regarding the quality of the products they manufacturer. Whether it be the pharmaceutical, foodstuffs or automotive industry, in order to deliver results consistently at all times, the machinery has to be highly reliable, smart and accurate. Temperature sensors help make sure this happens, measuring temperature in a number of ways and using this information as part of a processed controlled application.
- Which type of Temperature Sensor is right for me?
-
This question is difficult to answer as it really depends on your requirements and the industry you work in. For any advice, feel free to contact a member of our team who will be happy to talk you through the options.
- What is the difference between a Temperature Sensor and a Temperature Transmitter?
-
A temperature sensor is a device that provides temperature measurement via an electrical signal. It is typically comprised of two metals, which generate an electrical voltage upon noticing a change in temperature. On the other hand, temperature transmitters are devices which connect to temperature sensors, transmitting signals to help keep control of the system.
