Assemblies: Generally, thin film RTD elements are incorporated into some type of assembly for protection. Extension leads may be attached via soldering, crimping, brazing or welding. The attachment method must be capable of withstanding the intended maximum operating temperature.

The following precautions must be taken when incorporating the element into an assembly:

  1. Avoid straining the element leads.
  2. The resistance of extension leads must be taken into consideration. The resistance value at 0 Deg. C calibrated 1mm from end of lead wire.
  3. If extension leads are attached via soldering or brazing, all flux residue must be removed.
  4. If elements are encapsulated in a potting compound, insure that the compound will not induce pressure loads, resulting in a strain-gage effect.
