TF Series
Temperature Gage
This is a series of resistance type temperature sensors (resistance thermometers). These are bonded types like strain gages and feature quick response. Exclusive adaptor is recommended for measurement using strainmeter.

TFL-6 | 6 | 2.6 | 13 | 4.5 | 60 | 0.34 (Ω/°C) |
| TFL-8 | 8 | 3.5 | 14 | 5.4 | 120 | 0.68 (Ω/°C) |
- These adaptors are usable respectively for the TFL-6 and TFL-8 to read not only relative temperature but also real temperature with conventional strainmeter. Both units attenuates the resistance change equivalent to 100×10-6 strain per degree C.
