Temperature Measurement
Temperature sensor elements are:
Whether operation is conventional, smart or through Wireless HART, PROFIBUS PA or FOUNDATION Field bus – Siemens offers extensive user-friendliness and outstanding performance.
- Resistance thermometers (RTD)
Temperature measurement is based on the temperature dependency of the installed measuring resistor. - Thermocouples (TC)
Temperature measurement is based on the Seebeck effect. A thermocouple which subjected to a temperature drop produces thermoelectric voltage that can be measured.
