Ultra Cold Temperature Sensor

RTD type Platinum Tip Sensor
Accurate readings to -200°C

Ultra Cold Temperature Sensor

PT100 Type Ultra Cold Sensor

This Temperature Sensor is suitable for monitoring a wider range of temperatures from -200°C to +150°C (-328°F to 302°F). Used for ultra-cold shipments, such as the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. The Ultra Cold sensor is based on an RTD type sensor (Resistance Temperature Detector) made from Platinum. As temperature changes so do the resistance of the metal. This is precisely measured to give a temperature reading. The accuracy of the sensor is ±0.2°C (±0.4°F). This sensor is compatible with the sensorProbe+ platform only.
