The TM4591 is a compact IFM Pt 100 Class A temperature sensor designed for accurate temperature measurement with minimal insertion depth. Its 20 mm installation length is useful for compact process installations. The G 1/2 external thread with sealing cone provides secure process mounting. The sensor provides a passive RTD signal for external evaluation and control. Stainless-steel construction, electropolished wetted surfaces and IP68/IP69K protection support demanding process applications. IFM specifies a 20 mm installation length, 160 bar pressure capability and 1/3 second T05/T09 response for this model.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The TM4591 uses a compact cylindrical stainless-steel construction. Its short 20 mm sensing length is suitable where installation space is restricted. The 6 mm probe diameter allows installation into compatible process fittings. Electropolished wetted stainless-steel surfaces support hygienic process applications. The M12 connector uses gold-plated contacts.
The Pt 100 Class A element provides reliable resistance-based temperature measurement. The -40...150 °C range supports a broad range of industrial processes. The short probe provides a compact thermal measurement point. Its dynamic response is approximately 1/3 seconds for T05/T09. External electronics are required to evaluate the RTD signal.
The G 1/2 external thread provides secure process connection. Its sealing-cone arrangement supports compatible installations. The M12 A-coded connector provides convenient electrical integration. The passive RTD design allows signal evaluation through a remote controller. This makes the sensor useful for PLC and industrial temperature-control systems.
