Baumer temperature sensors are high-precision industrial sensors designed for accurate and reliable temperature measurement in a wide range of applications, including automation, process control, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and heavy industry. Baumer is a Swiss-based company known for its innovation in sensor technology, measuring instruments, and industrial imaging. 🌡️ Overview of Baumer Temperature Sensors Baumer offers a complete range of contact and non-contact temperature sensors, including: RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors) – typically Pt100 or Pt1000 Thermocouples Infrared sensors (non-contact) Digital temperature transmitters Hygienic temperature sensors for food and pharma 🧩 Main Types of Baumer Temperature Sensors 1. 🔧 RTD Sensors (Pt100 / Pt1000) Based on resistance change of platinum with temperature. Accurate and stable over a wide range (–50°C to +400°C). Example Series: CombiTemp TFRH, TFRN, TFR5 Output: Analog (4–20 mA), digital (IO-Link, Modbus), or direct resistance 2. 🔥 Thermocouples Type K, J, T, etc. Suitable for high temperatures (up to 1200°C depending on type). Faster response, lower accuracy than RTDs. Used in furnaces, exhaust systems. 3. 🛰️ Infrared / Non-Contact Sensors Measure surface temperature without contact. Used in moving parts or inaccessible areas. Example: Baumer TFD Series 4. 🧪 Hygienic Temperature Sensors Designed for clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilize-in-place (SIP) systems. Compliant with EHEDG, 3-A, FDA standards. Example: CombiTemp TFRH with integrated display and IO-Link. 5. 📟 Temperature Transmitters Convert RTD or thermocouple signals to 4–20 mA, 0–10 V, or digital outputs. Integrated electronics for linearization, signal conditioning. DIN rail or head-mount versions available. 📊 Key Features of Baumer Temperature Sensors Feature Description 🧠 High Accuracy Class A or better (±0.15°C or lower) ⚡ Output Options Analog (4–20 mA), Digital (IO-Link, Modbus), RTD resistance 🔄 Fast Response <1 second for some models (tip-sensitive designs) 🧼 Hygienic Design 3-A, EHEDG, IP69K rated versions 🔧 Flexible Installation Threaded, clamp, or hygienic connections 🔌 Plug & Play IO-Link-enabled smart sensors for fast setup and diagnostics 🏭 Applications of Baumer Temperature Sensors 🥫 Food & Beverage: Dairy, brewing, meat processing (CIP/SIP safe) 🧪 Pharmaceuticals: Bioreactors, clean rooms, sterile processes ⚙️ Industrial Automation: Motors, gearboxes, bearings 🏭 Process Industries: Oil & gas, chemicals, refineries 🚚 HVAC / Refrigeration: Chillers, air conditioning, freezers 🛠️ OEM Machines: Plastic molding, packaging, metal forming 📦 Example: Baumer TFRH Temperature Sensor Specification Value Sensor Type Pt100 Class A Range –50 to +200°C Output 4–20 mA + IO-Link Accuracy ±0.15°C Protection IP69K Process Connection G1/2', Clamp, or hygienic Features Integrated display, configurable via IO-Link ✅ Advantages of Baumer Temperature Sensors High Precision & Reliability even in harsh or hygienic conditions.
