Selection and verification method of pt100 thermocouple temperature sensor
Leave a message
Selection of Pt100 calibration points and basic methods:
1. The calibration points of each level of Pt100 should be 0℃ and 100℃, and the compliance of the actual resistance temperature coefficient a should be checked;
2. When △a does not meet the requirements, the upper (or lower) limit of the effective temperature range of the corresponding tolerance level in Table 1 should be calibrated;
3. The resistance value measurement of Pt100 and second-class standard platinum resistance thermometer should adopt the four-wire measurement method;
4. When calibrating Pt100, the current passing through the thermal resistor should not be greater than 1mA, and a digital multimeter that meets the measurement accuracy requirements should be selected; the platinum resistance method should be repeated alternately for no less than 4 times (including current reversal), and the average value should be taken as the measurement result.
Verification of R0 (resistance value at 0℃):
1. In an ice point bath (or a constant temperature bath with 0℃, with a deviation of no more than ±0.2℃), measure the resistance value of Pt100 and the temperature measured by a second-class standard platinum resistance thermometer, and compare and calculate the deviation value ±△t0 of 0℃;
2. The thermal resistor with a removable protective tube should be placed in a glass test tube with an inner diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the temperature sensing element. After the tube mouth is plugged with absorbent cotton or a wooden plug, it should be inserted into the ice point bath with ice water fully mixed. The insertion depth should not be less than 30mm;
3. The Pt100 thermal resistor with an unremovable protective tube can be directly inserted into the medium. The measurement data can be read only when it is stable during verification;
4. If a 0℃ constant temperature bath is used, the Pt100 thermal resistor should have a sufficient insertion depth to minimize heat loss;
5. When verifying Pt100 thermal resistors above AA level, in order to reduce the test uncertainty, it is advisable to measure in a water triple point bottle.
Verification of R100 (resistance value at 100℃) and Rt (resistance value at t℃):
1. Measure the resistance value of Pt100 thermal resistor R100 in a 100℃ constant temperature bath, and compare it with the temperature measured by a second-class standard platinum resistance thermometer, and calculate its 100℃ deviation value △t100;
2. The Rt verification of the detachable Pt100 thermal resistor is the same as the R0 verification. Place the temperature sensing element in a glass test tube (if the verification temperature is higher than 400℃, place Placed in a quartz test tube);
3. Insert into the thermostat and ensure sufficient insertion depth. After thermal equilibrium, continue to increase the insertion depth by 10mm. After re-reaching thermal equilibrium, the change in resistance value should not exceed 5% of the allowable error;
4. When the temperature t is higher than 500℃, the thermal resistor should be cooled to 0℃ with the tank at a rate of less than 1℃/min, and then taken out of the temperature control tank;
5. The calibration point temperature of the thermostat should not exceed ±2℃, and the change within 10min should not exceed ±0.02℃.
Table of allowable errors of industrial Pt100 thermal resistors
Qualified judgment of R0 and R100 resistance values:
1. Within the effective temperature range, the maximum deviation between the temperature t calculated by the graduation table and the actual temperature of the thermal resistor should not exceed the allowable error value given in the above table.
2. The nominal values of Pt100 (platinum resistor with a resistance of 100 at 0°C) and Cu100 (copper resistor with a resistance of 100 at 0°C) and the ranges of R0 and R100 that meet the tolerance requirements are shown in the table below.
