The perception of heat and cold is fundamental to the human experience, yet figuring out how to measure temperature has eluded many great men. It is unclear whether it was the ancient Greeks or the Chinese who first found a way to measure temperature, but it is well documented that the history of temperature sensors began in the Renaissance. We started with the challenges of temperature measuremen...

Basic concept of thermistor Thermistors are a class of sensitive elements whose resistance value varies with temperature. Depending on the temperature coefficient, thermistors can be divided into two types: positive temperature coefficient thermistors (PTC) and negative temperature coefficient thermistors (NTC). Positive temperature coefficient thermistors (PTC) increase in resistance when th...

The five most common types of temperature sensors Temperature Sensors One of the most commonly used sensors, we see temperature sensors in devices such as computers, automobiles, kitchen appliances, air conditioners and home thermostats. The five most common types of temperature sensors available today include: Thermistors , thermocouples, RTDs (resistance temperature detectors), digital thermomet...

Temperature Sensor Applications 1. Sensing applications Temperature sensors with thermal conversion are often used to measure physical quantities (e.g. flow, radiation, gas pressure, gas type, humidity, thermochemical reactions, etc.). The measured values of these sensors are mediated in thermal form and output as electrical signals. 2. Biomedical applications The biomedical field requires a speci...

Thermocouples and RTDs Thermocouples and RTDs both belong to the contact temperature measurement in temperature measurement, although their role is the same is to measure the temperature of the object, but their principles and characteristics are not the same. thermocouples Thermocouple is the most widely used in temperature measurement, the main features are wide temperature range, more stable pe...

Differences between thermopiles and conventional thermistors and thermocouples Thermistors are a class of sensitive components that are divided into positive temperature coefficient thermistors (PTC) and negative temperature coefficient thermistors (NTC) according to their temperature coefficient. Thermistors are typically characterized by temperature sensitivity and exhibit different resistance v...

Here are some technical points about the use of temperature sensors in charging guns/piles: 1、PURPOSE AND FUNCTION: The temperature sensor is used to monitor the temperature of the charging pile i...

A pellet stove is a device used to heat or calcine solid pellets, usually in industrial production and laboratories. During the operation of a pellet stove, the temperature sensor is a very important component in the operation of a pellet stove and is used to measure the temperature inside the stove to ensure that the temperature inside the stove is controlled and stabilized. For pellet ...
