The SA1-RTD surface-mount RTD temperature sensor mounts on flat or curved surfaces and provides Class A accuracy for critical temperature monitoring applications. Based on a 2 x 2 x 0.8 mm thin-film platinum RTD and supplied with bare 3-wire leads as a standard configuration (connector optional), itcan be customized for use in a wide variety of applications. The sensor can be easily applied with its selfadhesive
backing, or positioned permanently with OMEGABOND™ cements.
Use the SA1-RTD to monitor chip, heat sink, and environmental temperatures in electronic devices; check piping or ducting temperatures;monitor motor and transformer core heat; test insulation capabilities; and check other applications in which surface and/or gradient temperatures need to be monitored or controlled.

Excellent Turn-Around Time
Amazed at the extremely short-lead time. It arrived prior to the expected arrival time, and kept the project it was needed for Operationally Ready prior to the Completion Timeline.

Didn't stick well
The adhesive melted well before the stated temperature limit

As Advertised
I have used these on several projects, and the work exactly as advertised. I have not had a problem with any of them.

I'm interested in purchasing one of these, but I can't find information regarding acceptable current bounds; can you give me an estimate on minimum required current to operate this sensor, and maximum not to toast it?
Hi EAML
Thank you for the inquiry. 1 mA or less is the specified current level. A higher current can lead to self heating error and should be avoided.
Lower current levels can be used and the level is determined by the instrumentation used.
We do not have a specification on mA levels which can damage the sensor.
Best regards

What are the color codes of the 3 wires?
Does anyone know what the colors correspond to? Thanks.

It says, 'back can be reapplied' in the product description. Is there back adhesive material that can be used for this RTD?
The SA1-RTD if carefully removed can be reattached but each time will lose some of its adherent properties. Sometimes when it no longer sticks a piece of Kapton tape can be laid over the top to hold it in place,

What is the best method to cut the PFA wire covering to get access to more of the leads?
Omega sells the TW-6 which is designed to remove the outer insulation of wires with ease. You can enter TW-6 in the search box on Omega's web page for further details.

For a DAQ device with EX0, RTD+, RTD-, and COM ports (such as NI 9217), which wire go to which port? (For both 3-wire and 4-wire RTDs)
Thank you for your inquiry. COM & RTD- should have 1 Black Wire Each. EX0 & RTD+ should have 1 Red Wire Each.

Is the self adhesive backing easy to remove after a month or so of use? We need to monitor temperatures on piping for a month or so, then the sensors will need to be removed. Working temperature while monitoring will be around 90 degrees c
Thank you for your inquiry. The entire assembly can be removed carefully, but the self-adhesive properties will be lost.

What are the dimensions (width and thickess) of the cable?
Thank you for your inquiry Dave Z. The wire gauge of this sensor is 26 AWG. It has a nominal size of 0.060" x 0.064".

Does anybody have a recommendation for temperature sensing device to connect to this sensor? One that could connect to a computer, ideally.
You may want to consider the SA1-RTD-80 with the HH804U handheld meter along with the software HH800-SW (windows software and USB cable) which allows for real time data logging to a PC.
For extensive data logging a DC power jack is available
HH804U Meter $173.88 each in stock
Comes complete with HH804-CONNECTOR (one per channel), protective rubber boot,
NIST certificate (no points), 4 “AAA” batteries, and operator’s manual.

If a thermocouple can be considered in place of a RTD , for example the SA1-K-72- SRTC is a good option. We offer the Thermocouple Data logger with USB interface the OM-EL-USB-TC which accepts a J, K or T type thermocouple. This plugs directly into a USB Port – No USB cable is required
