Temperature Sensor PT100 for Clean Steam Generator Factory
Product Overview
Our temperature sensor PT100 for clean steam generator factory is engineered to deliver precise, repeatable temperature measurement in the demanding environment of steam production. The sensor utilizes a platinum‑resistance element (PT100) that provides a linear response from –200 °C to +850 °C, ensuring tight control of water‑to‑steam conversion, boiler pressure, and condensate quality. Designed with a rugged stainless‑steel sheath and a sealed, moisture‑proof housing, it meets the hygienic and corrosion‑resistant requirements of clean‑steam applications while maintaining IEC‑60751 accuracy class B (±0.15 °C at 0 °C).
The sensor is supplied with a 2‑wire, 3‑wire, or 4‑wire configuration to suit your control system, and can be mounted directly onto boiler tubes, heat‑exchanger headers, or process piping. With fast response times (≤1 s) and a stable output, it helps plant engineers reduce energy waste, extend equipment life, and comply with strict pharmaceutical‑grade steam standards.

Application Scenarios
The PT100 sensor is most effective in the following clean‑steam production lines:
- Boiler feed‑water temperature monitoring – ensures the inlet water stays within the optimal range for rapid vaporization.
- Super‑heated steam zone control – maintains temperature uniformity across the super‑heater, reducing hot‑spot formation.
- Condensate return temperature verification – safeguards against thermal shock in downstream equipment.
- Pharmaceutical and food‑grade steam generation – meets strict hygienic standards, as the sensor’s stainless‑steel sheath resists corrosion and bio‑film buildup.
Because clean steam generators operate continuously at high pressure, the sensor’s robust construction eliminates the need for frequent replacements, lowering total cost of ownership while providing data that integrates seamlessly with PLC, DCS, and SCADA systems.
Competitive Advantages
When comparing standard industrial RTDs to our temperature sensor PT100 for clean steam generator factory, three differentiators stand out:
- Hygienic Design: The 304/316L stainless‑steel sheath is certified for sanitary processes, preventing particulate contamination.
- Customizable Wiring: Choose 2‑, 3‑, or 4‑wire configurations and specify cable shielding to match electromagnetic environments typical of steam plants.
- Extended Service Life: With a 24‑month warranty and corrosion‑resistant materials, the sensor outlasts generic RTDs by up to 40 % in high‑temperature, high‑humidity conditions.
FAQ
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for a custom‑length cable?
Our standard MOQ is 50 units per order. For projects requiring longer or shielded cables, we can accommodate batches as small as 20 units, subject to a modest tooling surcharge.
Can the sensor be calibrated to IEC‑60751 Class A accuracy?
Yes. While the base model meets Class B, we offer a calibrated Class A option (±0.10 °C at 0 °C) with an additional testing fee and a lead time of 10‑12 days.
What is the typical lead time for bulk orders?
For quantities of 500 units or more, production lead time ranges from 15 to 45 days, depending on configuration complexity and certification requirements.
Do you provide documentation for hygienic compliance?
All sensors are supplied with material data sheets, CE marking, and, upon request, a full sanitary compliance package (3‑A, FDA, or EU GMP) to satisfy audit requirements.
