| NEW! 55000 Series GEM Thermistors
The newest thermistor product line from YSI combines the benefits of high accuracy and super-stable thermistors with low cost. The result is a unique product line that defines a new cost-versus-performance model for glass-encapsulated thermistors.
GEM Thermistors use a specially formulated glass material which provides a hermetic package rugged enough for most industrial applications. The product has high-temperature capability, to 200°C, and improved stability compared to epoxy- or plastic-encapsulated thermistors. Automated manufacturing of the YSI 55000 Series allows unprecedented process control in thermistor calibration and glass encapsulation.
A Variety of Types
Interchangeability tolerance levels - ±0.2°C, ±0.1°C
Standard resistances from 2252 ohms to 30 Kohms at 25°C
3 standard slopes - B mix and 2 H mixes
Performance Advantage
Excellent long-term stability
Broad temperature range to 200°C
Hermetically sealed in glass
Qualification Testing
The YSI GEM Thermistor has been evaluated using MIL R-23648 (military thermistor) specification. The thermistor has passed requirements for insulation resistance, thermal shock, vibration, shock, moisture resistance, immersion, resistance to solder heat, and short-time overload. High quality and reliability are achieved by combining the standard YSI thermistor fabrication process with a new proprietary process for glass encapsulation.
Applications
The YSI Gem Thermistor is ideal for applications which require high stability up to 200°C and are subject to a high-moisture environment. Temperature compensation for sensitive electronic circuits such as precision clocks, communications devices, and medical and scientific instruments achieve improved results with the GEM Thermistor. Therm-x application Engineering can assist you in selecting the best thermistor for your application -
The GEM Thermistor has the performance characteristics which directly compete with thin-film platinum RTDs. The thermistor's superior resolution, high-resistance values and ruggedness are available in a low-cost package, making the GEM the obvious choice for many applications.
The GEM Thermistor is effective when combined with Configure to order probe offerings. The high stability and temperature characteristics can be packaged in all CTO Probe styles, providing the flexibility to purchase a solution for the most demanding temperature measurement needs. |
