Resistance thermometer sensors (RTSs) and thermocouples are the temperature sensors most widely used in industrial
temperature measurement. They have the advantages of simple construction and ease of use, making for convenience in
measurement.
However, if correct application methods based on the proper standards are not followed, highly accurate measurements
cannot be expected.
This document is a compendium of the basic data relating to resistance thermometer sensors and thermocouples. *This
second edition reflects IEC and JIS revisions (thermocouples) of July 1995. We hope that this document will aid you in
comparing the various underlying standards from an international viewpoint, and in deciding which standards to follow.
This document also provides information on vital parameters such as operating temperature ranges and tolerances.

1. Resistance Thermometer Sensors
Resistance thermometer sensors (RTSs) are temperature sensors that make use of the
physical property where electrical resistance in metal increases proportionally with an
increase in temperature. Since platinum RTSs can be expected to provide the most
accurate temperature measurement of all industrial temperature sensors, they are widely
used, especially in conditions near room temperature.
One of the requirements for an industrial thermometer sensor is that its performance and
characteristics be guaranteed by a standard. Platinum RTSs have been standardized
under JIS C 1604 ("Resistance Thermometer Sensors") and JIS C 1606 ("Sheathed
Resistance Thermometer Sensors") in Japan, and standardized under IEC-751 ("Indus-
trial Platinum Resistance Thermometer Sensors") abroad. These standards were recently
revised one after another. This document explains the revisions and summarizes the
essential data based on the new standards.
1.1 Overview of the IEC Revisions
IEC-751 was revised in July, 1995. The major change in this revision is to revise
reference resistance in accordance with the temperatures of the 1990 International
Temperature Scale (ITS-90). ITS-90 has adopted as the new International Temperature
Scale since January 1, 1990 (Refer to 5. International Temperature Scale of this
document). IEC had started study to revise IEC-751 reference resistance immediately
after ITS-90 adoption, and finally accomplished.
1.2 Overview of the JIS Revisions
Resistance thermometer sensors JIS was revised in February, 1997. This revision made
JIS C 1604 completely conform to IEC-751.
The major changes are as follows.
(1) JIS for Resistance thermometer sensors is uniformed to JIS C 1604 (Resistance
thermometer sensors) and JIS C 1606 (Sheathed resistance thermometer sensors) is
abolished.
(2) Reference resistance table is revised to conform to IEC standard. In the new JIS,
reference resistance table is revised in accordance with the temperatures of the 1990
International Temperature Scale (ITS-90) which is adopted in IEC standard. As for
the new resistance reference resistance table, refer to Table A5 Resistance table at
the end of this document.
Figure 1 shows the difference between reference resistance values of JIS'89 Pt100
and those of JIS'95 Pt100. For example, when the measured temperature is 100˚C,
the difference is +0.027˚C, at 300˚C, it is +0.083˚C and at 500˚C, 0.242˚C. This
difference is bigger than the temperature difference between the old International
Temperature Scale (IPTS-68) and ITS-90 (Refer to 5.3 Influence of ITS-90 on
Industrial Thermometers). Comparing the temperature differences to the tolerances
at measured value 500˚C, it is about one fifth of the tolerance in class A, and less
than one tenth in class B, so their influence can be ignored on a practical industrial
use level. However, in using digital device which resolution is 0.1˚C or less than
that, the influence cannot be ignored.
(3) JPt100, which has used for many years in Japan, is abolished.
JPt100, which has unique reference resistance values of Japan, is abolished in the
new JIS. With regard to JPt100, it was already announced that it would be abolished
in the future at the last time revision (January, 1989). However, considering the
4. TI 6B0A1-01E2
situation that they have been used for more than thirty years and many of them are
still in use, the 1989 reference resistance table remains in the guide. It is also
described in the guide that the characteristics of JPt100 are almost the same as those
of Pt100 so that the quality of supplement is guaranteed. This Technical Information
provides reference resistance tables of abolished JPt100, JIS'89 Pt100 and JIS'91
50Ω(Pt50) for reference.

1.3 Types of Resistance Thermometer Sensors
The types of RTSs specified in JIS C 1604 and JIS C 1606 are standardized, as shown
in Table 2, according to the standard resistance element R100/R0 value, Class, rated
current, operating temperature range, and lead wire system.

1.4 Tolerances vs. Temperature
Tolerances with respect to temperature must be within the ranges in Table 3 throughout
the operating temperature ranges. Table 4 shows samples of tolerance versus measured
temperature. If the measured temperature t °C in Table 3 includes a fractional value
below the decimal point, the tolerance range includes the smaller value. To avoid the
risk of disputes in judgment as a result of exceeding measurement capability, the
following guidelines are used for rounding off the tolerances: In Class A the number of
valid significant digits below the decimal point is two, rounded down from three. In
Class B the number of valid significant digits below the decimal point is one, rounded
down from two.

1.5 Temperature/Resistance relationships Values in Various Nations
Table 5 shows a comparison of resistance thermometer characteristics. IEC standards
were standardized in Pub 751 in 1983. Due to intensifying international influence, JIS
was revised to accept these in January of 1989. Note that there are significant differ-
ences between JPt100 and Pt100.

1.6 Copper Resistance Thermometer Sensors
There are no standards for copper RTSs in JIS, and they have been little used in general
industry, but they are found in rotating electrical equipment, primarily to measure
temperatures of coils, bearings, etc. The following shows the nominal resistances and
the standard resistance element Rt/Ro standardized in JEM 1252 (Japan Electrical
Manufacturers’ Association) for RTSs in rotating electrical equipment.

2. THERMOCOUPLES
Thermocouples sense temperatures based on the principle that an electrical current is
generated when two different metals are combined in a closed circuit and subjected to a
temperature difference; they are widely exploited in industry due to their simple con-
struction and excellent reliability. There are many types of thermocouples in use.
Those which are the most widely used, whose characteristics are understood, and which
have demonstrated their reliability, have become the objects of standardization. This
document deals primarily with those thermocouples standardized in the JIS, plus other
typically used thermocouples that have been field-proven in particular applications.
2.1 Overview of the JIS '95 Revisions
JIS standards related to thermocouples were revised as of July 1, 1995. The major
purpose of this revision is to make these JIS standards conform to the international
standard IEC 584. Thermocouple codes, thermal EMF, and tolerance classes were
revised to match IEC584, so JIS standard data are consistent with the standards used
abroad now.
The major changes are "N thermocouple is newly stipulated" and "standard thermal
EMFs revised". As shown in Figure 1, the difference between JIS'89 and JIS'95 thermal
EMFs will have little effect on industrial temperature measurement.
Figure 1 Revised Value of Thermal EMF
9. 7TI 6B0A1-01E
2.2 Types of Thermocouples
In most cases, a thermocouple’s type is indicated by a code. Since the codes specified
in JIS conform to the IEC standards, they are shared with other international standards,
in particular with DIN (Germany) and ANSI (United States) [See Table 10]. Table 8
shows the codes, component materials, operating limits, and other features of thermo-
couples standardized in JIS. Table 9 shows representative non-JIS-standard-thermo-
couples in practical use.
12. TI 6B0A1-01E10
2.3 Thermal EMF Characteristics
The standard thermal EMFs of the various thermocouple types are shown in Appendix
Tables B1 through B19.
Because JIS C 1602-1995 was written to be consistent with the standards used in other
countries, particularly IEC, ANSI, etc., this is beneficial when importing and exporting.
However, attention is required since the DIN standard adopts its own unique specifica-
tions for Type U and Type L. Table 10 gives a list of the standard thermal EMF
document selections for the individual national and international standards. Equations
for interpolation of standard thermal EMFs are provided for reference at the end of this
document.

2.6 Thermocouple operating Limits
Normal operating limits are the temperatures that are generally recommended for
continuous use in air. Overheat operating limits are the temperatures for short-period
use not sharply defined limiting temperatures, but rather those at which operations for
the times indicated in Table 13 will not result in thermal EMF changes greater than the
values also shown in that table for continuous operation in clean air.

2.7 Thermocouple Leadwire Resistances
Although electronic instruments almost unaffected by thermocouple leadwire resistance,
it can cause problems in the case of moving coil instruments and may require compensa-
tion, so the user should follow any directions given in the manual for the instrument.
Table 14 shows thermocouple resistance R0 at 0˚C, and resistance R20 at 20˚C. Table
15 shows the resistance ratios Rt/R20 and Rt/R0, between resistance values R20 and R0
and resistance value Rt at t˚C. When compensating for this resistance with moving-coil
instruments, it is customary to treat half of the thermocouple’s specified length as being
at the operating temperature, and the other half as the room temperature.

4. EXTENTION AND COMPENSATING CABLE
Table 21 shows the types (codes), component materials, operating temperatures, toler-
ances and colors for compensating cable. In the revision of JIS C1610 (Compensating
cable) of July 1995, types (codes), operating temperatures, tolerances, and colors were
changed. Especially for the color of the cable cover, Division 1 is newly added to
conform to IEC standard. However, the former JIS color regulation still remains as
Division 2 so as not to cause accidents due to the color change when expanding or
retrofitting existing systems. Use Division 2 as necessary.
Usage classification is shown in Table 22. Since operating temperature high limit
extended to 200˚C, FEP (teflon) is newly added to insulator types. As usage classifica-
tion is determined by insulator material, conditions are described in the notes of Table
22.
Table 23 shows insulator resistance. Standard values differ according to the materials.

5. INTERNATIONAL TEMPERATURE SCALE
5.1 International Temperature Scale Plan
As with other physical quantities, because temperatures must be expressed the same
internationally, they are expressed with a temperature scale based on a resolution passed
at a general meeting of the International Weights and Measures Committee. The old
international temperature scale, the 1968 International Practical Temperatures Scale
(IPTS-68), was revised by the 78th International Weights and Measures Commuitee in
September of 1989 based on a resolution from the 18th general meeting of the Interna-
tional Weights and Measures Committee which met in 1987. The 1990 International
Temperature Scale (ITS-90) was adopted as the new international temperature scale, and
has been in effect internationally since January 1,1990.
These changes in the international temperature scale solved problems found in IPTS-68
through advances in measurement technology centering on the latest thermodynamic
temperature measurements. The international temperature scale plan is guided by the
following three principles:
(1) The plan specifies repeatable thermal equilibrium states, which are assigned tempera-
tures to define fixed points.
(2) The plan assigns a standard thermometer for each temperature range, calibrated to
the defining fixed points.
(3) The plan establishes interpolation formulas that decide the relationships between
temperatures (international temperatures) and standard thermometer indicated
temperatures (output values) in order to interpolate between the defining fixed points.
Although the temperature concepts are based on thermodynamic temperatures, since
absolute measurement of thermodynamic temperatures is not possible, improvements
that bring the international temperature scale closer to thermodynamic temperatures are a
matter of repetition along with progress in measurement techniques. Gas and radiation
thermometers are used as thermodynamically well-defined thermometers in the measure-
ment of thermodynamic temperatures. However, although a gas thermometer in prin-
ciple determines thermodynamic temperature from a comparison of pressure at ideal
states using ideal gasses, in fact since no ideal gas actually exists and an ideal state
cannot be perfectly attained, we can only arrange conditions close to the ideal and add
corrections to the best of our ability to determine the true values. Thus, in keeping with
progress in measurement techniques, corrections are incorporated into the temperatures
of the defining fixed points. Previously, a new international temperature scale had been
adopted roughly every twenty years. The ITS-90 now in use has been adopted as an
attempt to faithfully arrive at the thermodynamic temperatures using state-of-the-art
techniques. However, because advanced techniques were required to achieve ITS-90,
these endeavors are entrusted to the techniques of specialists at organizations studying
temperature measurements.
23. 21TI 6B0A1-01E
5.2 Essentials of the 1990 International Temperature Scale (ITS-90)
ITS-90 is intended to solve certain problems found in the 1968 International Practical
Temperature Scale (IPTS-68). The main corrections are as follows:
(1) The low temperature range is expanded, and is defined to 0.65K.
(2) The range previously defined by thermocouples (630.74 to 1064.43˚C) is replaced by
a range up to 961.78˚C defined using a platinum resistance thermometer, while the
range above 961.78˚C is defined using a radiation thermometer.
(3) The defining fixed points have been changed, with the boiling points of oxygen,
water, and neon being eliminated and replaced by several triple points and freezing
points, and the temperatures at the defining fixed points overall have been changed.
The relationship between the defining fixed points of the ITS-90 and the instruments
for interpolation is shown in Table 25. Because the temperatures for the defining
fixed points have changed overall, the t90-t68 Temperature Difference shown in
Table 26 has been changed based on these definition changes

5.3 Influence of ITS-90 on Industrial Thermometers
Because industrial thermometers conform to JIS, the temperature differences due to
definition changes, and their relationship to JIS, are matters of importance. Since the
temperature differences accompanying definition changes are small, on a practical level
their influence can be ignored (see Figure 4).
The areas where the effects of ITS-90 become a problem for the temperature related JIS
standards are in the standard thermal EMF tables for thermocouples, and the standard
resistance are in the standard thermal EMF tables for thermocouples, and the standard
resistance tables for resistance thermometers sensors. Because the temperatures for the
current standard tables are regulated by IPTS-68, the switch to ITS-90 requres that these
be changed by the temperature difference (t90 - t68). Because the JIS tolerances for
temperature sensors are specified with respect to the standard tables, the influence of
ITS-90 becomes clear when the temperature differences due to definition changes are
compared to the tolerances.
The maximum temperature difference due to a definition change in the region up to
1100˚C is + 0.36˚C at 780˚C. The value of this corresponds to 11% of the tolerance
(3.1˚C) of a Class 0.4 thermocouple, and can, in practice, be ignored. Although for a
Class 0.25 thermocouple the change at 780˚C reaches nearly half of the tolerance, this
presents no problems because Class 0.25 applies only to Types R and S thermocouples,
and these are usually used at 1000˚C and above. The operating limits for RTSs are
650˚C for Pt100, and 500˚C for JPt100. The largest change in the range up to 650˚C is
0.115˚C at 600˚C; this value is 10% of the tolerance of + 1.35˚C for a Class A type, and
can be ignored in practice.
Although as explained above there is no problem in viewing the transition to ITS-90 as
having no practical effect on industrial thermometry, there are instances in which the
application of ITS-90 required for precision measurements such as temperature measure-
ment in scientific research for determining physical constants. In such cases, tempera-
ture measurements should be converted according to the values in Table 26.

APPENDIX TABLE A1-2 PT100 REFERENCE RESISTANCES
The reference resistances in Appendix Table A1 are calculated in the following equa-
tions:
-200˚C to 0˚C range:
Rt = R0 [1 + At + Bt2 + C (t - 100) t3]
0˚C to + 650 ˚C range:
Rt =R0 (1 + At + Bt2)
Where: A = 3.90802 x 10-3˚C -01
B = -5.802 x 10 - 7˚C - 2
C = -4.2735 x 10 - 12˚C - 4
Notes: 1. R0 is 100Ω, and Rt represents the resistance at t˚C.
2. The above expressions were used to calculate the reference resistances for this
standard, and are not intended to be used to determine the characteristics of
any individual RTS.
