Is it suitable to use a WZP-230 thermistor thermometer for a working temperature of 280 degrees?

Thread Content

The operating temperature is 280 degrees, and the medium is superheated steam. Is it suitable to use a WZP-230 thermistor thermometer? According to the technical specifications, the measurement range of the WZP-230 is from -200 to +500 degrees. Please advise

The measurement range of WZP-230 is -200 to +500 degrees. Since your operating temperature is 280 degrees, there should be no problem, but pay attention to the installation requirements!

No problem; generally, thermistors are used for temperatures below 400 degrees

No problem..................... How do I post a message? Nothing happens?

It can be used. The WZP-230 seems to be a regular Pt100 type. I think it’s better for chemical plants to use armored versions, as they are less likely to break down, especially in areas with vibrations. I’ve used some regular Pt100 sensors before, and their lifespan wasn’t very long

Of course, no problem. As long as the operating temperature multiplied by 2 does not exceed 600 degrees Celsius, it can be used with confidence without any issues

It's better to use armored ones; there is less maintenance required.

Absolutely, it’s something we use regularly.

Of course. It’s better to have it armored:victory:

Using a thermal resistor is fine when the temperature is below 400; Whether to use armor depends mainly on the level of vibration and wear ;

It can definitely be used; if used for an extended period, it’s best for the measurement values not to exceed 2/3 of the range. .

It’s possible, but you need to add a sleeve

In addition to considering the measurement range, it is also necessary to take into account the pressure range of the medium being measured. If the pressure exceeds the pressure tolerance limit of ordinary platinum resistance thermometers, a protective tube with a higher pressure resistance rating, such as a cone-shaped tube, must be used
