The TT-3/100 temperature sensor from HBM is made of a 5 µm-thin nickel measuring grid embedded between two polyamide foils making it very flexible for fitting to both flat and curved surfaces.
The sensor is glued onto the component - in the same way as strain gauges - resulting in excellent thermal contact and a rapid response time. Integrated solder tabs are used for connection to the data acquisition system.
The TT-3/100 temperature sensor covers a range of -70°C to +180°C and has a nominal (rated) resistance at 0°C of 100 ohms. An appropriate amplifier enabling resistance measurements is required for temperature measurement.
The TT-3/100 has been designed to complement HBM’s range of strain gauges and is particularly suitable for applications where strain gauges are used at the same time.
