K120 with a Stem and Metal Connection Head

These resistance-type temperature sensors are intended for contact temperature measurements of liquid or gaseous substances. The temperature sensor-central holder combination is suitable for temperature measurements in air condition ducts. The temperature sensor-thermowell combination is suitable for temperature measurements in tubing. The sensor variant with welded thread is ideal for direct measuring of mediums in ducts. The standard operating temperature range is -30 to 200 °C. By using a sensor with a longer stem the upper limit of allowable temperature can be extended up to 250 °C. The temperature sensors can be utilised for any control systems that are compatible with sensing element output signals or output signals quoted in the table of sensing element types.

The temperature sensors are designed to be operated in a chemically non-aggressive environment.
