Description
The RTD-200 is a three-wire platinum RTD (resistance-
temperature-detector) typically used with electronic control
systems that require accurate ambient temperature sensing.
The RTD-200 comes with a 1/2" NPT fitting that installs to the
appropriate conduit box. This allows mounting of the RTD in a
typical ambient location. This also allows for splicing of RTD
extension wire back to the controller.
