Basically there are two types of measuring resistors differentiated in temperature probes : Thin-film measuring resistors and wire-wound measuring resistors. The advantages of thin-film measuring resistors are their small overall size and high vibration resistance with the appropriate construction of the temperature sensor. Thin-film measuring resistors have come to represent the standard sensor design, provided that they are not ruled out as a result of their temperature range (measuring ranges for accuracy class B temperature probes: Thin-film measuring resistors -50 … +500 °C / -58 ... +932 °F, wire-wound measuring resistors -200 … +600 °C / -328 ... +1,112 °F). Thus, wire-wound measuring resistors have advantages in lower and medium temperature ranges.
