Explosion-proof Multi-point Armored Thermoresistor
Explosion-proof multi-point armored thermoresistors are a special structural variant ofPt100 platinum resistance thermometers, belonging to the same “family” as the thermocouples you learned about in the previous round—both are explosion-proof multi-point armored temperature sensors, differing only in their core temperature-sensing elements.
Core Technical Parameters
Parameter Typical Value / Range Description Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) Class Pt100(Platinum Resistance) Industry Standard; Cu50 Copper Resistance Also Available Temperature measurement range -200℃ ~ +500℃ Typical range for platinum resistance; copper resistance only -50~100℃ Number of measurement points 2 to 32 points(customizable to more) 3-point, 6-point, and 12-point configurations are common specifications Explosion-proof rating dⅡBT4 ~ dⅡCT6 CT6 is the highest rating, suitable for environments containing hydrogen and other gases Protection Rating IP65 Dustproof and waterproof, suitable for harsh environments Thermal Response Time ≤ 3s ~ ≤ 12s(depending on the sheath diameter) Φ3 armored type: as fast as ≤3s; Φ6: about 12s Armored Outer Diameter Φ3mm ~ Φ8mm For diameters ≤Φ5, the maximum insertion depth can exceed 30 meters Accuracy Class Class A / Class B Class A: ±(0.15+0.002|t|)°C; Class B: ±(0.30+0.005|t|)°C Installation Method Fixed Thread, Fixed Flange, Swivel Ferrule Customizable to match on-site connections Conduit Material 1Cr18Ni9Ti (304), 316L, etc. Selected based on the corrosivity of the medium Junction Box Type Waterproof, Explosion-proof, Stainless Steel Flameproof Enclosure Explosion-proof environments must use explosion-proof models Product Features
Accurate and Stable Temperature Measurement: Uses imported platinum resistance elements (Pt100), offering high precision, eliminating the need for compensation leads, and at a lower cost than thermocouples.
Explosion-Proof Safety: The junction box features an explosion-proof design compliant with IEC standards, achieving an explosion-proof rating of dⅡCT6.
Robust and Durable: Armored construction combined with a spring‑loaded temperature-sensing element ensures pressure resistance, vibration tolerance, and a long service life.
Multi‑Point Integration: A single mounting hole can measure temperatures at multiple depths, reducing installation costs.
Barrier Structure: A dielectric barrier is installed between the armored core and the junction box, preventing medium ingress in case of sheath damage.
Typical Application Scenarios
Fertilizer Industry: Temperature measurement at different depths inside synthesis towers and reaction vessels (this was the original design intent behind multi-point armored resistance thermometers)
Petrochemical industry: Temperature gradient monitoring inside distillation columns and reaction vessels
Tank temperature measurement: Multi-point temperature measurement inside storage tanks for edible oils and chemical raw materials
General industrial applications: Temperature measurement of liquid, steam, and gaseous media within the range of -200℃ to 500℃

When placing an order, you must clearly communicate the following key information to the manufacturer:
Thermocouple Type and Temperature Range: Confirm whether the maximum temperature is within 500℃
Number of Measurement Points and Depth at Each Point: Provides the exact depth of each temperature measurement point from the mounting flange surface (this is the core of customization)
Explosion-proof Rating: Specify the requirements according to the explosion-proof zone classification, such as Ex d IICT6
Process connection specification:Flange or thread? Please specify the standard, pressure rating, and size
Protective tube material:select based on the corrosivity of the medium (standard: 1Cr18Ni9Ti/304)
Output Configuration:Three-wire configuration recommended (to eliminate lead resistance errors)
Usage and Maintenance Recommendations
Installation: When bending the armored section, the bend radius should be no less than 5 times its diameter
Wiring:Must use a three-wire configuration to eliminate measurement errors caused by lead resistance
Measurement Current: The measurement current through the RTD should be ≤5 mA to avoid self-heating errors
Regular Calibration: It is recommended to perform periodic calibration according to standards to ensure accuracy
If you can provide the specific number of measurement points, insertion depth at each point, maximum temperature, explosion-proof rating, and mounting interface, I can help you with precise model selection.
