DMS ControlSystem manufactures PT100 accurately sense temperature with an excellent degree of repeatability and interchangeability of elements. The PT100 is composed of certain metallic elements whose change in resistance is a function of temperature. In operation, a small excitation current is passed across the element, and the voltage, which is proportional to resistance, is then measured and converted to units of temperature calibration. The Pt100 element is manufactured by winding a wire (wire wound elements) and sealing the element within a ceramic or glass capsule.
