PT1000 RTD Class A Sensor Element PRTD1-1K-A
PRTD1-1K-A PT1000 RTD Class A Sensor Element
The PRTD1-1K-A PT1000 RTD Class A sensor element is a precision platinum resistance temperature detector designed for high-accuracy temperature measurement in OEM equipment and industrial instrumentation.
This compact RTD element is manufactured to DIN EN 60751 and provides a nominal resistance of 1000 Ω at 0°C, making it compatible with standard PT1000 measurement circuits and controllers. If you are building a temperature probe and need tighter accuracy than Class B, Class A is typically the correct choice in calibration-critical or tighter tolerance designs.
Key Features of the PT1000 RTD Class A
• PT1000 RTD Class A accuracy (DIN EN 60751)
• 1000 Ω nominal resistance at 0°C
• Wide operating temperature range from -200°C to +600°C
• Fast response time for dynamic temperature measurements
• Compact sensing element for probe integration
• Stable sensing technology for long-term reliability
Mechanical Design
The PRTD1-1K-A element features a compact RTD body and nickel lead wires for integration into custom temperature probe assemblies.
Typical mechanical characteristics include:
• Sensor diameter ≤ 2.45 mm
• Nickel lead wires Ø 0.25 mm
• High pull strength ≥ 8 N for reliable probe integration
The small form factor allows the RTD element to be installed in stainless steel probe housings, overmolded probes, or other custom temperature sensor designs.
Applications for the PT1000 RTD Class A
- Industrial temperature probes
- Precision control systems
- Laboratory and test instrumentation
- HVAC and building controls requiring tighter accuracy
- Process monitoring equipment
- Calibration-sensitive measurement systems
