1. If your application requires more than one platinum resistor, up to five platinum resistors can be matched with one another to within ± 0.1 K at liquid nitrogen temperature with only one calibration being purchased. If absolute accuracy is required, one of these matched sensors can be calibrated. For larger quantities, or for different requirements, consult Lake Shore. At the time of order, add the suffix -LN to the sensor.
Example: PT-102-14D-LN is a PT-102-LN sensor with a calibration range of 14 K to 100 K that is matched with at least one other uncalibrated PT-102 to within ±0.1 K at liquid nitrogen temperature.
2. For metrological applications below 30 K, use a germanium resistor (page 1-22). PT-100 sensors are not useful below 14 K for metrology and are of limited use below 30 K for temperature control due to rapid decline in sensitivity.
3. For high...
