Available probes
The reasonably priced probes with PUR-connection cable are meant
for measurement in open atmosphere, on surfaces or in non-aggressive gas medium. The probes are sealed and can bear water contact for
some time. However, long term immersion in liquid is not recommended.The models with stainless steel probe tube are chemically stable
and the tube portion of probe can be submerged in liquid, the stainless
steel (1.4571) does not get affected.
Temperature range
The Dallas temperature sensors are semiconductor sensors. The
un-housed sensors are suitable for temperature measurement in the
range of –55 … +125 °C. These temperature values are the nal limits
and operating above these values is not at all recommended, otherwise the component can get damaged.
In addition, the allowable application temperature also depends on the
connection cable and type of protection sleeve used. The operation
range of the cable is -40...+130 °C, so the probe should not be used
above these values.

Installing and conguration
The Dallas temperature sensor of type 1820 has an internal iden-
tication (serial number) and can be operated in parallel together
with several other components on a three-wire bus. After wiring all
the sensors, the PC adapter must be individually congured for the
connected sensors. Operation is not possible without prior conguration of the system. Since the conguration is stored in the internal
EEPROM of adapter, this process is to be done only once. Only if an
additional sensor is to be used on the existing network, the conguration needs to be repeated.
The sorting of probes, found on the network, is done on the basis of
binary serial number.
Pin conguration of RJ12-plug connector
The Western-plug connector is congured as follows (View on the
cable, i.e. contact surfaces of the plug!):
1 Shielding or unoccupied
2 Ground
3 Dallas Data or unoccupied
4 Dallas Data
5 +5 V
6 +5 V or unoccupied
Thermal heat transfer of sensor-ambient temperature
During surface measurements, the measuring arrangement should
be thermally insulated from the surroundings, for example, with some
foam material or mineral wood.
Thermal heat transfer of sensor-connecting wires
This measuring error can be minimised by itself, for example, if the
connecting lead used is as thin as possible and the connecting material is a bad thermal conductor or if the connecting wire is tempered
with the measuring object.
In principle, of course, the highest measuring accuracy is achieved
through immersion in liquids or in a mounting tube. However, an additional measuring error should be included while taking measurements
on surfaces.

Measuring accuracy
The sensors are calibrated during manufacture and have a typical
measuring accuracy of ±0.5 °K at 23 °C application temperature. At
the upper and lower limit of measuring range, the accuracy is somewhat on the lower side. Further information is available in the data
sheet of component at the website of manufacturer.
During all temperature measurements, the physical conditions are
also to be taken care of in order to avoid measuring error, which
mainly decides the precision of measuring arrangement.
Thermal transition resistance of measuring objectsensor
This is the main measuring error which occurs during surface measurements. This can be eliminated by providing good thermal contact
through mounting in a tube, applying thermal conducting paste or
thermal conducting adhesive.
