Hygienic Temperature Sensor – RT-RC1-K
Product description
[CONFIGURATOR]
Application:
The RT-RC1-K Hygienic Temperature Sensor is designed for precise and rapid temperature measurement in pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries. Featuring a direct cable output, it eliminates the need for bulky connectors, making it ideal for compact installations and flexible sensor placement.
Its fixed measuring insert ensures fast response time, allowing real-time temperature adjustments in critical process environments. The flange connection with turning nipple (G1/8 or G3/8 BSP) provides a secure and hygienic mounting, while the AISI 316L stainless steel construction and electro-polished surfaces (<0.5 µm) ensure full CIP/SIP compatibility.
With an IP67-rated design, the RT-RC1-K is built for harsh environments, offering protection against dust, water, and high-vibration conditions.
Common use cases include:
✓ Dairy & Beverage Processing – Designed for liquid food applications, where fast temperature changes require immediate response.
✓ Pharmaceutical Manufacturing – Provides high-precision temperature control in sterile environments, supporting GMP compliance.
✓ Biotech & Aseptic Environments – The direct cable connection and fixed insert enable rapid and stable temperature monitoring.
✓ CIP/SIP Systems – Fully compatible with Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Steam-in-Place (SIP) sterilization, ensuring long-term hygienic operation.
✓ Process Control & Automation – Available with 4-20mA output and various cable lengths for seamless system integration.
✓ Compact & Reliable Installation – The flange-mounted design with a turning nipple ensures secure positioning and easy maintenance.
