The EL2270 is a Pt100 platinum resistance temperature sensor for general industrial use. The sensing device is an RTD 3 wire device
that meets EN 60751: Class A. This sensor can be connected directly to any temperature indicator or controller that has a 3 wire Pt100
input. A quick response version (40 mm insertion length only) is also available for applications such as plate heat exchanger control.
A miniature version of the EL2270 may also be ordered. This has a 1⁄4" BSP taper thread, and a tip length of 39 mm.
The EL2271 is a combined Pt100 sensor and transmitter assembly. The sensing element is a 3 wire device that meets EN 60751:
Class A and the transmitter has a 4 - 20 mA output.
An ATEX approved version is available to special order.
A comprehensive standard range is normally available from stock. Non-standard ranges can be obtained to special order, subject to a
low limit of -50 °C, and a maximum of +500 °C. The 4 - 20 mA output can be connected directly to any temperature indicator, controller
or flow computer that has a 4 - 20 mA input. Contact Spirax Sarco for further details. Transmitters with 3 point calibration are available
to special order.
General
Three types of pockets are available:
1. Thin wall with a 1⁄2" NPT process connection for non-flow applications only.
2. Drilled taper with a 1⁄2" NPT process connection.
3. Hygienic, to 3A sanitary standard, with a 11⁄2" sanitary clamp connection
(ASME BPE) electropolished to 0.4 μm (a Declaration of Conformity is
available).
Note: No pocket is available for the miniature EL2270.
Material
316 stainless steel
Maximum temperature
500 °C
Selection
Pockets are sized to suit the probe tip length 'D', and are specified as 'pocket to
suit a __ mm probe'.
Note 1 - The pocket dimension 'F' is 25 mm shorter than the probe length 'D',
which appears to be incorrect. The reason is that the threaded body of the pocket
acts as a stand-off, and therefore allows adequate clearance between the probe
tip and the end of the pocket.
Note 2 - Pockets to suit 225 mm and 725 mm probes are for non-flow
applications only (maximum flow velocity 0.65 m/sec).
