5606-50-G Overview

The 5606-50-G PRT (platinum resistance thermometer) is only two inches (50 mm) long with a sheath diameter of 1/8 inch (3.1 mm) and features a termination of gold pins. It can be completely submerged in its entire temperature range, eliminating the need to determine the minimum depth of immersion. The entire probe, including the transition junction and lead wires, can be immersed in non-corrosive liquids or dry mediums with temperatures ranging from –200 to 160 Celcius.

The 5606-50-G Full Immersion PRT is designed to function in harsh conditions where both the transition junction and the lead wires need to endure temperatures spanning the probe's entire operational range. In this context, "immersion" simply denotes exposure to non-ambient temperatures and does not specifically refer to the medium in which the PRT and its components are placed.

The 5606 Series

The 5606 Series of PRTs have been tested and proven to work effectively in common heat transfer fluids such as silicone oil, mineral oil, ethanol, and even liquid nitrogen without any damage to the transition junction seal or lead wire insulation.

Applications where "full immersion" of probe, transition junction, and lead wire is required can include calibration or validation of sensors used in laboratory or bio freezers, walk-in refrigerators, autoclaves, ovens, stability test chambers, furnaces or incubators. Other applications might include IQ/OQ/PQ qualification procedures, temperature mapping, or data logging in temperature controlled spaces or environmental chambers.
