An RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) is a sensor whose resistance changes as its temperature changes. The resistance increases as the temperature of the sensor increases.
The experimental setup with steel case and integral power supply helps to study the characteristics of the RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector).
The setup consists of the following specifications:
- Transducer : RTD ( Pt 100 ).
- Oven : Temperature control bath.
- Temperature range : Ambient temperature to 110 degree centigrade.
- Temperature controller with Digital temperature indicator.
- Output : Measured by Digital Voltmeter : 0 – 20 V, 3 ½ digit Digital Display.
- Temperature indicator : 3 ½ digit Digital Display.
- IC regulated power supply : + 5 V @500 mA.
- Bridge Network.
