The TM4501 is a hygienic temperature sensor designed for accurate process temperature measurement in sanitary applications. It features a compact 30 mm installation length for applications where limited insertion depth is required. The sensor uses a process-oriented hygienic connection and a stainless-steel sensing construction. Its Pt100 sensing element provides reliable RTD temperature measurement. The compact design makes it suitable for food, beverage, pharmaceutical and other hygienic process systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The TM4501 is designed for hygienic process temperature measurement. Its short 30 mm installation length is useful for compact process connections. The hygienic process interface supports clean process installation. The stainless-steel construction is suitable for sanitary production environments. The sensor can be connected to compatible temperature evaluation systems.
The sensor operates over approximately -40...150 °C. Its RTD element provides stable resistance-based temperature measurement. The compact sensing length supports fast thermal response in many process applications. The sensor is suitable for continuous process monitoring. External evaluation equipment can convert the RTD signal for automation use.
The hygienic process connection supports sanitary installation. The 30 mm installation length is suitable for shallow process measurement points. Electrical integration can be achieved through the associated connector configuration. The sensor can be integrated into temperature controllers and PLC systems. Correct hygienic sealing is important for process integrity.
The passive RTD element relies on external electronics for diagnostic functions. Resistance checks can be used for troubleshooting. Hygienic surfaces should be maintained according to the process cleaning procedure. Process seals should be inspected regularly. Calibration verification supports reliable process quality.
