The new hygienic Pt100 probe sensors from ifm efector are ideally suited for precise temperature measurements in food applications.
The sensors have a 6 mm thin sensor tip that the company says ‘guarantees an excellent response time of T05 = 1 s and T09 = 3 s while ensuring high stability.’
Small temperature changes can reportedly be detected in a very short time enabling optimum process monitoring.
With stainless steel housings, the sensors are said to be extremely robust and have a pressure rating of up to 160 bar.
They are certified by EHEDG and 3-A Sanitary Standards and can be used internationally in the food industry, says ifm efector.
The measuring range covers -40 to 150 °C. The accuracy of the stainless steel versions is compliant with DIN EN 60571, class A.
