The difference between armored thermistor and thermistor temperature sensor as two types of temperature instruments

Thermistor temperature sensor is a type of temperature sensor that uses the principle that the resistance value of a conductor or semiconductor changes with temperature to measure temperature. Thermistor temperature sensors are divided into two categories: metal thermistors and semiconductor thermistors. Thermistors are widely used to measure temperatures within the range of -200~+850 ° C. In rare cases, low temperatures can be measured up to 1K and high temperatures up to 1000 ° C.
Thermistor temperature sensor is a commonly used temperature sensor product that can use the principle that the resistance value of conductors or semiconductors changes with temperature to measure temperature. It has the advantages of stable performance, flexible use, and high reliability.
Industrial thermistors generally use Pt100, Pt10,Cu50,Cu100, The temperature measurement range of platinum resistance thermometers is generally -200-800 ℃, while that of copper resistance thermometers is -40 to 140 ℃. Thermistors and thermocouples have the same type of differentiation, but they do not require compensating wires and are cheaper than thermocouples.
Although armored thermal resistors are widely used in industry, their application is limited due to their temperature measurement range. The temperature measurement principle of thermal resistors is based on the characteristic that the resistance value of conductors or semiconductors changes with temperature. It also has many advantages, such as remote transmission of electrical signals, high sensitivity, strong stability, good interchangeability and accuracy. However, it requires power excitation and cannot measure temperature changes instantaneously.
Armored thermistor is a solid body composed of temperature sensing elements (resistors), leads, insulation materials, and stainless steel sleeves. Its outer diameter is generally between 2 and 8mm, with a minimum of 0.25mm. Compared with ordinary thermistors, it has the following advantages:
① Small size, no air gap inside, thermal inertia, small measured value;
② Good mechanical performance, vibration resistance, and impact resistance;
③ Can bend, easy to install;
④ Long service life.
Armored thermistor is a commonly used temperature measuring element in temperature measuring instruments. It is composed of two conductors with different compositions connected at both ends to form a circuit. When the temperature of the thermocouple at the two junction points is different, a thermal current will be generated in the circuit. If there is a temperature difference between the working end and the reference end of the thermocouple, the display instrument will indicate the temperature value corresponding to the thermoelectric potential generated by the thermocouple.
Armored thermocouple is a type of temperature sensor that has a smaller diameter, is more flexible, and has better seismic resistance compared to prefabricated thermocouples. It is suitable for installation in situations where prefabricated thermocouples cannot be installed. The company's armored thermocouples use imported thermistor temperature measuring elements, which have the advantages of precision, sensitivity, fast thermal response time, stable quality, and long service life.
