Custom temperature probe
Pt100, Pt1000, thermocouple, NTC or coated probe: describe the probe you need; we configure it for your application. DYNATIME, a Swiss distributor based in Marin (NE), has been supporting industrial companies for over 30 years in the selection and integration of their temperature sensors.
How it works
- You are describing your probe Element, dimensions, working temperature and options, in 4 steps.
- We are analyzing your request Our technicians check the consistency of the configuration and advise you if another solution is more suitable.
- You receive a proposal : a fixed price offer, for a prototype as well as for a series.
Configuring your probe
Which element for which application?
PT100 and Pt1000 probes
Platinum thermoresistances offer precise and stable measurements over time. They are offered in Class A by default; other classes are available upon request. They are connected in 2, 3 or 4 wires depending on the precision required on the measurement line.
Thermocouples J, K and S
The thermocouples cover high temperatures. The J type is suitable for moderate temperatures, the K type for common applications up to high temperatures, and the S type, made of platinum, for processes above 1,000 °C.
NTC probes
NTC thermistors are compact, responsive, and economical. They are suitable for moderate-temperature applications such as machinery, equipment, and professional electrical appliances.
Insulated mineral-insulated jacketed probes
A sheathed probe is a cable with mineral insulation protected by a metal sheath. It folds to fit your installation and withstands high temperatures, vibrations, and aggressive environments. Available diameters range from 0.25 to 8 mm.
Connection options
- Connector or wire output : we together define the connector that is suitable for your installation.
- Blindage : for environments subjected to electromagnetic disturbances.
- Built-in converter Output 0-10 V, 4-20 mA, Modbus or IO-Link, for direct connection to your automation system.
Frequently asked questions
Both are platinum thermoresistances. The Pt1000 has a resistance ten times higher at 0 °C, making it less sensitive to the resistance of long cables and suitable for low-power electronics.
The PT100 is more precise and more stable. The thermocouple rises higher in temperature and reacts faster. Please indicate your working temperature in the form; we will advise you accordingly.
Yes. We treat prototype requests like serial orders.
Yes. Fill in what you know and specify your application in the comments; we will contact you to refine it.
Applications of our custom-made temperature probes
Each industrial process imposes its own temperature, space and connection requirements. Our custom probes are particularly suitable for:
- industrial ovens, ovens and climate chambers;
- coffee machines and professional catering equipment;
- surface treatment lines and galvanoplasty baths;
- plastic processing, injection and extrusion;
- special machines and laboratory equipment.
In each case, the choice of the element, the diameter, the length and the cable determines the accuracy and the lifetime of the measurement. That is why we verify each configuration before sending you a quote.
