A temperature sensor is a device used to measure temperature. This can be air temperature, liquid temperature or the temperature of solid matter. There are different types of temperature sensors available and they each use different technologies and principles to take the temperature measurement.

Which is type of temperature sensor?

Which is best temperature sensor?

The most well-known are Pt100 (with a resistance of 100 ohms at 0°C) and Pt1000 (with a resistance of 1,000 ohms at 0°C). The Pt1000 offers better accuracy and a larger tolerance to long wire lengths than the Pt100. Compared to thermocouples, resistance sensors offer better accuracy and a more linear response.
