Request Information
The melt-bolt RTD sensor illustrated below is used on extruders and injection molding machines to directly measure the melt temperature of plastic as it moves down the extruder barrel. This sensor is made of 300 series stainless steel and is constructed using a 100 Ω platinum element with a temperature coefficient of 0.003 85 ºC-1 (IEC Class B). Elements of other materials, values, and tolerances are available upon request.
