Data Sheet
Temperature sensor
Type MBT 3250
Heavy-duty industrial temperature sensor.
Heavy-duty temperature sensors for controlling
cooling water, lubrication oil, hydraulic oil and
refrigeration plants within general industry and
marine applications.
On a standardized Pt 100 or Pt 1000 element,
which gives a reliable and accurate
measurement. The sensor can also be delivered
with NTC / PTC elements on request.
The MBT 3250 with changeable measuring
insert is equipped with EN 175302-803-A Pg
plug as standard.
The measuring insert is based on a silicone
cable, which makes the sensor very resistant
towards vibrations.
Features:
• Gaseous or liquid media, e.g. air, gas, vapour,
water or oil
• Up to 200 °C media temperature
• Pt 100 or Pt 1000 sensing element
• 1 or 2 elements
• Can be used with 2 or 3 wire connections
• Gold plated male and female connector
• With interchangeable measuring insert
