TDK has introduced the new K525 component, a new EPCOS temperature coefficient (NTC) temperature sensor with a wide temperature range from -10 °C to +300 °C. This sensor uses a ceramic filler material is a ceramic ferrule design, very suitable for applications in harsh environments, and have excellent corrosion properties, can withstand acid and other corrosive media. With a response time of only 1.2 seconds, it can easily cope with measurement tasks with fast and frequent changes in temperature. At 25 ° C and 100 ° C, the resistance is about 48.5 kΩ and 3.3 kΩ, respectively, and the B value (20/100) is close to 4000 K. In terms of electrical performance, the new sensor has a high level of safety and has passed high voltage testing with a maximum leakage current of only 0.1 mA at 4 kV AC. With a wide temperature measurement range and a rugged ceramic housing, the new sensor is suitable for a wide range of applications, such as industrial and automotive electronics, as well as household appliances.
