Compact temperature transmitter for hygienic process temperature measurement

Thermocont TK

Compact temperature transmitter for process temperature measurement in gases, vapors, liquids and dusts, with Pt100 class A sensor, -50°C...+150°C range, 4...20 mA or Pt100 output and ingress protection (IP67).

Introduction

Process temperature measurement becomes simpler when the sensor fits the plant, not the other way round. This compact temperature transmitter measures temperatures from -50°C...+150°C in pipes and vessels, with standard screw-in threads and hygienic process connections for food-compatible applications.
 
A long-term stable Pt100 class A sensor according to IEC 60751 provides the measurement basis, while the optional integrated electronics convert the signal into a temperature-linear 4...20 mA output. Direct Pt100 4-wire output is also available. Accuracy down to \leq 0.1K or 0.08% and long-term drift of \leq \pm0.1K or 0.05% FS per year support dependable monitoring in industrial processes.
 
The stainless steel compact housing, M12 plug connection and ingress protection (IP67) make installation fast and space-saving. Multiple process connections, probe diameters, lengths, reduced tips and neck tube options help adapt the device to different process conditions, including hygienic layouts.
