The document describes the features and characteristics of the PT Compact and PT Compact plus resistance thermometers, which are designed for temperature measurement in processes with medium and low pressures. The temperature measurement ranges from -200°C to +600°C, covering the majority of temperature measuring tasks. The thermometers are available with platinum sensors PT100 or PT1000 in 2-, 3-, 4- or 2x2-wire circuit. If the measuring signal needs to be transmitted over longer distances, the PT Compact plus is available with an integrated transmitter. This transmitter converts the resistance of the platinum sensor into a linear temperature signal 4-20 mA or 0-10 V. Different process connections and adjustable compression fittings highlight the variability of this measuring instrument. A version with a tapered stem is also available for fast reaction times. The electrical connection is realized with an L-plug according to DIN EN 175301-803A. An M12x1 connection is optionally available. All thermometer parts in contact with the process medium are made of stainless steel. The housing and the replaceable measuring insert are bolted together by a knurled nut, allowing for the exchange of the measuring insert without removing the thermometer from the process. It is even possible to upgrade from PT Compact to PT Compact plus or to TC400, a compact RTD with LED display and switching output, without opening the process connection.
The Tecsis PT Compact is a screw-in resistance thermometer designed for temperature measurement in processes with medium and low pressures. It utilizes platinum sensors (PT100 or PT1000) available in 2-, 3-, 4-, or 2x2-wire circuits. The device features compact dimensions, easy handling, and cost-efficient design, allowing for the exchange of the measuring insert without removing the thermometer from the process.
