5pcs MAX31865 RTD Platinum Resistance Temperature Detector Module PT100 - PT1000
5pcs MAX31865 RTD Platinum Resistance Temperature Detector Module PT100 - PT1000
5pcs MAX31865 RTD Platinum Resistance Temperature Detector Module PT100 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. Compared to most NTC/PTC thermistors, the PT type of RTD is much most stable and precise (but also more expensive) PT100's have been used for many years to measure temperature in laboratory and industrial processes, and have developed a reputation for accuracy (better than thermocouples), repeatability, and stability. However, to get that precision and accuracy out of your PT100 RTD you must use an amplifier that is designed to read the low resistance. Better yet, have an amplifier that can automatically adjust and compensate for the resistance of the connecting wires. If you're looking for a great RTD sensor, today is your lucky day because we have a lovely Ours RTD Sensor Amplifier with the MAX31865 breakout for use with any 2, 3 or 4 wire PT100 RTD!

Product Features
- MAX31865MAX31865 Platinum Resistance Temperature Detector Module RTD PT100 to PT1000. For precise temperature detection, nothing beats a platinum RTD. By default, the module is configured for PT100 (430 reference resistor). If you want to use PT1000, you need to replace the reference resistor yourself with a 4.3k resistor.
- Compact DesignResistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are temperature sensors that contain a resistor that changes the value of the resistance as the temperature changes, basically a kind of thermistor. PT100s have been used for many years to measure temperature in industrial and laboratory processes and have developed a reputation for precision (better than thermocouples), repeatability and stability.
- CompatibleWe have also made the 5V adapter compatible, with a 3.3V regulator and level shifter, so you can use it with any Arduino or microcontroller.
