Abstract

The platinum resistance thermometer is a versatile instrument for temperature measurement in the range from — 200° to 1000°C. It is used both for precision measurements of the highest accuracy and for routine industrial work. This article discusses the development and construction of resistance thermometers and their uses in a wide range of industries.
