• -200°C to 550°C (-328°F to +1,022°F) Usable Temperature Range
• +/- 0.5°C Accuracy from -10°C to +85°C

For precision temperature sensing, nothing beats a Platinum RTD. Resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are temperature sensors that contain a resistor that changes resistance value as its temperature changes, basically a kind of thermistor. In this sensor, the resistor is actually a small strip of Platinum with a resistance of 100 ohms at 0°C, thus the name PT100.
