NTC Thermistors

NTC ThermistorsShibaura is an innovator in the field of negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors--sensors whose resistance decreases as temperature increases. The company was the first to develop glass-sealed PSB (Pellet Shaped Bead) thermistors in 1973, and has continued its research and development in the field.

Shibaura NTC thermistors provide high stability thanks to the fine ceramic chip. The automated production process refined through Shibauras years of experience provide uniform shape and characteristics--as well as high cost performance. The glass seal provides high heat resistance and moisture tightness, while the small size provides fast response times.

High performance and high quality--Shibauras NTC thermistors are the ideal choice for quality applications.

Long awaited NTC thermistor withstanding to 800degC. As change of electric resistance value to temperature is very low, now can be used at wider temperature range from -50degC to 800degC. Long awaited NTC thermistor for wide temperature range. New and very unique characteristics, low B value (2240K) and high resistance value enables usage at wide temperature range. The smallest glass-sealed thermistor element never produced in the world, which is capable of mass production. Outer diameter 0.43mm, 50% smaller volume then PSB-S7. Standard 2.3mm diameter for general use. Medium 1.3mm diameter is used for applications which require fast response. Mechanically strong for its small 0.8mm diameter. Thermal time constant of two seconds, six times faster than the 12 seconds of the conventional PSB-S1. Micro size with nominal 0.53mm diameter. Thermal time constant is one second, 12 times faster than the 12 seconds of the conventional PSBS1. NSII can withstand severe repetition of heat cycles, in environments with dust, oil vapor and various gases. Fine ceramic reinforcement at lead wire outlet means long-term, stable quality, compared with one reinforced by epoxy resin or silicone. Accurate and stable thermistor chip at high
