The PT1000 temperature sensor (Type BT6) from Chauvin Arnoux is a specific accessory for the pH meters C.A 10101 and conductivity meters C.A 10141. It is designed for precise temperature measurement in liquids or other media, where temperature measurement is critical for the accuracy of pH and conductivity measurements, as these are highly temperature-dependent. The sensor is designed for general applications and enables measurements in the range of -10 °C to +110 °C.

Applications

The temperature sensor is used in industrial and laboratory applications where precise temperature control during measurement is required. It is particularly suitable for applications where samples must be temperature-controlled to ensure constant conditions during calibration and measurement. Its use in combination with pH or conductivity meters enables automated temperature compensation, thereby increasing the reliability of measurement results.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The sensor is based on a metal resistance thermometer of type Pt1000, in which the electrical resistance of platinum varies with temperature. The nominal resistance is 1000 Ω at 0 °C. This technology enables high measurement accuracy and stability across the entire measurement range. The probe body is made of Inox (stainless steel), ensuring high corrosion resistance and durability. The compact design, with a diameter of 5 mm and a length of 97 mm under the protective housing, allows flexible placement in narrow or deep measurement points.

Technology Explained Simply

The PT1000 sensor uses the physical property of platinum, whose electrical resistance increases linearly with temperature. The device measures this resistance and converts it into a temperature reading. Connection is made via a jack plug, enabling a secure and easy connection to compatible measuring instruments. The use of stainless steel as the housing material ensures high mechanical strength and chemical resistance against many liquids.

Compatibility and Accessories

The temperature sensor is specifically designed for the pH meters C.A 10101 and conductivity meters C.A 10141. It is not intended for other devices unless they support the same connection standard (jack plug) and Pt1000 interface. Combining it with these devices enables integrated temperature compensation, which improves measurement accuracy.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out by simply inserting the jack plug into the corresponding connection on the measuring instrument. The probe is directly immersed into the liquid or medium to be measured. The compact form facilitates placement in confined spaces. No additional tools or mounting aids are required.

Operational Advantages

Using the PT1000 temperature sensor ensures high measurement accuracy, as temperature is a critical influencing factor in pH and conductivity measurements. The robust stainless steel construction ensures long service life and resistance to aggressive media. The simple handling and direct connection via jack plug reduce installation time and minimize error sources.
