Time
Constant |
1 second maximum for
standard thermistors, 2.5 seconds maximum for Teflon-sheathed
thermistors, when suspended by their leads in a well-stirred oil
bath. In still air, 10 seconds maximum for standard thermistors, 25
seconds maximum for Teflon-sheathed thermistors. |
Dissipation
Constant |
8 mW/°C minimum when
suspended by their leads in a well-stirred oil bath, or 1 mW/°C in
still air. |

Tables showing nominal
resistance values, ohms per degree, and tolerance at select
temperatures over the operating range are available upon

Maximum
Power |
30 mW at 25°C to 1mW at
125°C short-term. |
Stability
|
YSI thermistors are
chemically stable and not significantly affected by aging or
exposure to strong nuclear radiation. The table below shows typical
stability for a representative thermistor, the YSI
44005. |
