## Temperature sensors types {#temperature-sensors-types}
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are three main types of temperature sensors:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- [RTD](#org-target--sec-temperature-sensor-rtd) (Resistance Temperature Detectors): made of pure metals (Pt, Ni or Cu)
|
||
|
They are all PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient): PT100, PT1000, ...
|
||
|
- [Thermistor](#org-target--sec-temperature-sensor-thermistor): made of metal oxide mixtures (semiconductor materials).
|
||
|
It can have a NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) or a PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient).
|
||
|
- [Thermocouple](#org-target--sec-temperature-sensor-thermocouple) (Seebeck effect):
|
||
|
- Type K (-180 to 1200 degC)
|
||
|
- Type T (-250 to 350 degC)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
