RT7 – Standard RTD Assembly

RT7 standard RTD assembly built for precise temperature sensing and dependable performance in a wide range of industrial environments.

Contact

The RT7 RTD assembly is a resistance temperature detector designed for use in hazardous locations. The RT7 is a customizable product that is model number configured and made to order. The RT7 consists of a stainless steel RTD sensor, complete with a connection head (enclosure) that may be provided with a terminal block, DIN rail, wire splice connectors, or internal transmitter. Connection extension fittings will spring load the sensor into a thermowell or a fixed fitting can be used without a thermowell.

T7 Sensor Probe Construction Notes
LT Low temperature (-50 to +260°C) (-58°F to +500°F) Temperature values are for the RTD temperature sensor probe construction only. The CSA process and ambient temperature assembly ratings are dependant on connection head (T1), connection extension type and length (T2 & T3), as well as the thermowell or fixed fitting it is connected to.
HT High temperature (-50 to +482°C) (-58°F to +899°F)
ET Extreme temperature (-50 to +850°C) (-58°F to +1562°F)
VT Vibration construction (-50 to +482°C) (-58°F to +899°F)
CT Cryogenic temperature (-200 to +260°C) (-328°F to +500°F)
