Stick-in resistance temperature probe for Ex areas, M12 connection

GTF111-EX

Resistance temperature probe for Ex areas with Pt100 or Pt1000 4-wire elements, M12 connection, compact 100 mm x 6 mm standard probe tube and measuring ranges up to -200 °C ... +600 °C.

Introduction

Hazardous industrial areas often leave little room for installation, while temperature measurement still has to match the Ex zone and process limits. This compact resistance temperature probe is designed as an insertion sensor for explosive atmospheres and uses an M12 connection for detachable cable integration.
 
Pt100 and Pt1000 versions use sheathed resistance thermometer elements in 4-wire design. Depending on configuration, Pt100/Pt1000 versions cover -50 ... +100 °C without neck tube. With neck tube, Pt100 versions cover -200 ... +600 °C and Pt1000 versions cover -70 ... +600 °C.
 
The standard GTF 111-Ex design uses a 100 mm probe length, 6 mm probe tube diameter and stainless steel probe tube. Configurable probe tube diameters from 3 to 8 mm and neck tube designs support different installation requirements, while Ex ia versions are listed for defined gas and dust zones.
