STANDARDS FOR RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE SENSORS (RTDs)

There are numerous standards around the world and the goal of this part of the site is to eventually catalog most, if not all, of them. This is a start with links to many of the organizations involved, if they are on the Web. The ones we know the best are those published by ASTM and those standards that deal with radiation thermometers. We shall be searching the Web and the Net for more details. If you can add to this page, just email your information and we will include it as we are able to verify and edit the page.

ASTM Standards Related to Temperature and Calibration: E 1594-99 Standard Guide for the Expression of Temperature E 344-01a...Terminology Relating to Thermometry and Hygrometry E 563-97 Standard Practice for Preparation and Use of Freezing Point Reference Baths E 1502-98 Standard Guide for the Use of Freezing Point Cells for Reference Temperatures E1750-02 Standard Guide for Use of Water Triple Point Cells ASTM Standards Related to Resistance Temperature Detectors E 644-98 Standard Test Methods for Testing Industrial Resistance Thermometers E 1137-97 Standard Specification for Industrial Platinum Resistance Thermometers E 1652-00 Standard Specification for Magnesium Oxide and Aluminum Oxide Powder and Crushable Insulators Used in the Manufacture of Metal-Sheathed Platinum Resistance Thermometers, Base Metal Thermocouples, and Noble Metal Thermocouples Other Standards Related to Resistance Temperature Detectors German Industrial Standards Organization (DIN) DIN 43760 references nickel precision DIN IEC 751 reference platinum precision resistance thermometers. Note Please: The items on each list will be linked to more detailed pages and it will all expand over time. Check back from time to time to see the progress. If you believe that you could add something, send an email with your comment and suggestions. Thank you for visiting
