UK Manufactured Mineral Insulated RTDs
We manufacture and design mineral insulated resistance thermometers. Resistance thermometers are often called platinum resistance thermometers (PRTs), resistance thermometer detectors (RTDs) or simply Pt100 sensors. Mineral insulated resistance thermometers consists of an external metal sheath which protects the P100 element from damage and contamination. This outer sheath is insulated with magnesium oxide powder, tightly packed so no air is trapped inside. This not only gives great thermal conductivity but mineral insulated RTD can be bent into a variety of shapes to suit your application.
Made to your specification
There are a wide range of options for our MI resistance thermometers. They can be constructed with various diameters and materials of sheath, many different RTD types (Pt100, Pt1000 etc) and with our laser welder, mineral insulated RTD lengths are practically limitless.
