Platinum RTD Temperature Sensors
Connect directly to any Pace Data Logger, no external power required.
PT510/520 Temperature Sensor
PT510: 200°C (392°F) continous temperature rating
PT520: 260°C (500°F) continuous temperature rating
Ideal for surface temperature measurements
PT510 includes adhesive backing for easy mounting
Low thermal mass for fast response
Excellent moisture resistance
Pace PT510 and PT520 Sensors consist of a thin-film 10,000 ohm platinum element encased in a high-temperature laminate. The PT510 includes a pressure sensitive "peel and stick" adhesive backing.
Please Note: Standard 100 to 1000 ohm RTDs are not compatible with Pace Data Loggers.

PT510 / PT520 Extension Cable
If longer leads are required, extension cable can be spliced to the PT510 or PT520. We recommend 24 AWG copper two-conductor stranded cable for extensions of up to 150 ft. (45 meters). For longer extensions, use 22 gauge two-conductor stranded cable. Acceptable splicing methods include wire nuts, crimp connectors, hand twisting and taping, or solder. For cable runs longer than 30 feet, we recommend using shielded cable.
