The threaded nozzle RTD illustrated below is generally used to measure the temperature of the nozzle of an injection molding machine. This style is not in direct contact with the molten plastic. Due to the relatively small size of this sensor, other general areas of use include mounting in bearing housings, sealing bars, heat plates, and other limited space applications. These assemblies are supplied standard using a 100 ohm 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.
