8 years on from the discontinuation of the KTY 84 family (01/2015), we must now inform you that our stocks of this type have been fully used up. We will be removing this item from our range with immediate effect and will therefore no longer be able to offer it.

The Pt1000 has established itself on the market as the main successor, but for the user this means that the hardware and software will both need to be replaced.

The PTC 600 (silicon semiconductor element) that we also employ as an alternative can likewise be used with certain restrictions.

We have expanded our measuring and testing technology to include a microsection laboratory.

In order to test in accordance with the high quality standards that you and we demand, we have expanded our measuring and testing technology to include a microsection laboratory. This enables us to test and document our connection technology at automotive level. We are also happy to offer this as a service for externally manufactured products.

The PT-KTY converter emulates the discontinued KTY 84-130 from a Pt100 or Pt1000 signal. Converters for other types of KTY sensors on request.

Reissmann Sensortechnik GmbH has developed a converter that analyses the resistance of a Pt100 or Pt1000 sensor and outputs the equivalent KTY resistance. The output characteristic of the converter is very close to the ideal characteristic of a KTY sensor without its extensive tolerance. The converter allows our customers to retain the existing hardware (frequency inverter) and control software in their systems. This cost effective alternative is available as a “control cabinet module” for DIN rail TS35 in the variants with a supply voltage of 230 V AC and 24 V DC, as a “field module” in IP 68 design with 24 V DC and as a “micro converter” for direct operation on the encoder cable. In addition to this, the SUB model was developed, which can be mounted directly on the SUB input of the control unit. The compact design of the four variants facilitates straightforward installation in the control cabinet and in the field.

Thermal monitoring module Type: TMS-Basic

The TMS Basic is a modified, further developed and more user friendly version of the TMS-LC. The modifications are not apparent from the exterior and the device is also fully compatible with the previous LC model, i.e. interchangeability is also guaranteed with the new model. The new features relate to the user friendliness of the default settings, which allow each user to configure the temperature sensor of their choice via DIP switches. This also applies to the pre-selection of an automatic or manual reset. All other functions available with the TMS-LC have been retained.

With the discontinuation of the KTY 84 / 83 from NXP, the PTC-600 can be an alternative under certain conditions.
Product information

With the discontinuation of the KTY 84 / 83 from NXP, the PTC-600 can be an alternative under certain conditions. However, it is not a fully 100% substitute due to its technical and mechanical properties.

Let’s discuss the tailored solution we can develop together with you.

• From approx. 160 °C, the incline of the characteristic curve is no longer linear(disadvantage compared to KTY84)
• Measuring range up to a maximum of 190 °C (disadvantage compared to KTY84)
• Recommended measuring current 1 mA (corresponds to KTY84)
• The dimensions of the sensor differ from the KTY sensor: larger outer diameter, longer length, thicker wire
• The temperature sensor is polarity-independent (advantage compared to KTY84)
