7-2. Temperature measurement
(1) Reference temperature
The international Temperature Scale (ITS) is based on the following
table 7-1 which was revised in 1990 with seventeen fixed points and
corresponding temperatures.

(2) Temperature measurement sensor
The common usage for the resistance temperature detectors, RTD, is to
convert temperature into electro signal. Please refer to following table
7-2 of its feature:
Table 7-2
Feature
Description
1. Accuracy
Higher accuracy
2. Resolution
0.1~1.0℃ higher resolution
3. Speed of response
Slower
4. Self-heating
yes
5. Long term stability
Good
6. Output characteristic
Approx. 0.4 ohm/℃, near linear.
(3) Optional Platinum resistance sensor
This kind of temperature probe meets the specification of German
DIN43760: 1968, 3-wire measurement.
The relation between temperature and resistance can refer to the
description of the Gallendarvan Dusen Equation as follows:
R
RTD
=R

(T-100)]
Where: R
RTD
is the calculated resistance of the RTD.
R
0
is the known RTD resistance at 0℃.
T is the temperature in ℃.
A=alpha [I+(delta/100)]
B=-I(alpha)(delta)(Ie-4)
C=-I(alpha)(beta)(Ie-8)
The alpha, beta, and delta values are listed in Table 7-3.
