High-stability disc thermistors offer maximum sensitivity

Ametherm today announced that its NTC disc thermistors acquired from Measurement Specialties (formerly RTI Electronics) are now being stocked in the UK by Rhopoint Components. Ametherm's NTC disc thermistors deliver high stability and maximum sensitivity for temperature measurement, compensation, and control in applications such as fan motor controls, fluid levels, and temperature sensors in a wide range of end products. With diameters from 2.54mm to 12.7mm and profiles from 0.64mm to 5.33mm, the NTC disc thermistors feature resistance at 25C from 4ohm to 150kohm, precision tolerances to 1%, Beta from 3000K to 5000K, and high-temperature operation to +150C. The devices offer dissipation constants from 3mw/C to 17mw/C and thermal time constants down to 5s. RoHS-compliant, the leaded components are available in insulated and non-insulated configurations. "Rhopoint Components has been carrying RTI Electronics and Measurement Specialties products for over 20 years, so we are very pleased to have them round out this offering acquired by Ametherm with our NTC disc thermistors," said Mehdi Samii, vice president of sales and engineering, Ametherm. "Ametherm's NTC disc thermistors make an exciting addition to our portfolio," said Ian Moore, sales and marketing director, Rhopoint Components.
