Honeywell Introduces 700 Series Temperature Sensors



Thin-Film Sensor Technology Results in an Economical and Stable Miniaturized Sensor with Enhanced Accuracy

FREEPORT, Ill., October 21, 2005 - Honeywell [NYSE:HON] Sensing and Control announces the introduction of the 700 Series Platinum Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) Temperature Sensors to its existing family of temperature sensors. Miniaturization is a key element to this series allowing quicker reactions and response times to temperature changes for many demanding applications. Thin-film technology increases the 700 Series' design flexibility by providing a high level of interchangeability as either a basic component or as custom-specific assemblies.

The sensors are produced in a Class 1000 clean room using state-of-the-art vapor deposition, photolithography and etching technologies that provides an optimized environment to manufacture a sensor with reliable performance and improved longevity. "With the 700 Series, Honeywell Sensing and Control can offer a leaded device that is more rugged and durable and can be handled more easily than RTDs with ribbon leads which are often fragile and easily damaged," said Chris Gauthier, senior product marketing manager.

700 Series sensors offer excellent stability and reliability featuring linear resistance, wide temperature ranges, leaded and SMT (Surface Mount Technology) configurations in both DIN A and DIN B tolerances and are potentially suitable for use in HVAC, electronic assemblies, process control, appliance, automotive and instrumentation applications.

The 700 Series is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant.
