Nickel Thin Film Temperature Sensor
Nickel thin film elements are characterized by a relatively high temperature coefficient. Typical applications include
bearing temperature monitoring, HVAC temperature monitoring, and stator winding temperature monitoring
Nominal Resistance R0 Accuracy Part Number
120 ohms at 0 °C 2 X DIN 43760 100 485-4
All technical data serves as a guideline and does not guarantee any particular properties to the product.
Specification ANSI
Temperature Range -60 °C to +250 °C
Temperature Coefficient 6720ppm/K
Lead wire material Nickel
Protective coating high-temperature epoxy
Self-heating 0,3K/mW in air
Response time Water (v = 0,2m/sec.) t0,9 = 0,3 sec.
Air (v= 1m/sec.) t0,9 = 9 sec.
Operating Current, Maximum 5 mA
Polynomial of the resistive characteristic:
R(ϑ) = R0 x (1 + 5,88x10-3xϑ + 7,872x10-6xϑ2 + 4,71x10-9xϑ3)
Maximum permissible tolerance as a function of temperature (accuracy
defined as 2 x DIN 43760):
ϑ<0°C: F = ±(0,8 + 0,056 x ϑ) °C
ϑ>0°C: F = ±(0,8 + 0,014 x ϑ) °C
Status: 10/09 DWM
