Product Overview

RTD Resistance Elements — Platinum 100 Ohm & Platinum 1000 Ohm OEM Elements

Wire-wound and thin-film resistance elements used in custom platinum 100 ohm and platinum 1000 ohm assemblies.

RTD Element Formats for OEM Sensor Builds

Resistance elements are specified by element style, resistance value, tolerance class, physical size, and lead format so the sensing core can be integrated into a custom probe, insert, or recurring OEM sensor design.

Pt100 and Pt1000 RTD resistance elements with thin-film and wire-wound ceramic sensing elements

OEM Resistance Element

Select this element format when a wire-wound or OEM sensing core needs to be packaged inside a larger custom assembly.

Wire-Wound vs. Thin-Film Elements

Wire-wound and thin-film elements solve different problems, even when both are built around the same resistance value.

Wire-Wound Elements

Best when the assembly needs long-term stability, tighter tolerance options, wider temperature capability, or premium accuracy.

Thin-Film Elements

Best when the assembly needs compact packaging, faster response, repeatable production cost, or higher-volume OEM supply.

Practical Selection Guidance

  • Choose wire-wound when stability, high-temperature operation, or accuracy drives the design.
  • Choose thin-film when response time, footprint, or recurring production cost matters most.
  • For platinum 100 ohm and platinum 1000 ohm projects, the correct element depends on the complete assembly design, not just the bare element.

OEM Supply Programs

Blanket order programs, lot documentation, supplier qualification support, and shelf-stock planning reduce lead time for production environments.

Integration Options

Ceramic protection tubes, silver-soldered or welded leads, and matched-resistance extension wire are available for OEM assembly requirements.
