It follows a traditional high-purity platinum characteristic curve, commonly called the \u201c391 curve\u201d.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pt100 IEC 60751, \u03b1 = 0.00385<\/strong><br>International electrotechnical standard adopted by the EU, China and most countries worldwide. It is commonly called the \u201c385 curve\u201d and is the global mainstream for industrial instruments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Different \u03b1 Temperature Coefficients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The temperature coefficient \u03b1 describes the average change in resistance per degree between 0 \u00b0C and 100 \u00b0C:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u03b1 = (R<sub>100<\/sub> &#8211; R<sub>0<\/sub>) \/ (R<sub>0<\/sub> \u00d7 100)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>IEC 60751 Pt100: \u03b1 \u2248 0.00385<\/strong><br>The standard resistance at 100 \u00b0C is 138.51 \u03a9, meaning the resistance increases by about 0.3851 \u03a9 per degree over 0\u2013100 \u00b0C.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GOST 6651-2009 Pt100: \u03b1 = 0.003910<\/strong><br>The standard resistance at 100 \u00b0C is 139.10 \u03a9, so the resistance increases by about 0.3910 \u03a9 per degree over 0\u2013100 \u00b0C.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although both sensors are 100 \u03a9 at 0 \u00b0C, their resistance values diverge rapidly as temperature rises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Different Platinum Material Concepts and Curves<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The difference in \u03b1 originates from different platinum material concepts and calibration curves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>IEC 60751 (385 curve)<\/strong><br>Designed around doped industrial platinum to fit the ITS-90 temperature scale, using the standard Callendar\u2013Van Dusen polynomial for its resistance-temperature relationship.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GOST 6651-2009 (391 curve)<\/strong><br>Originated from earlier high-purity platinum wire with a naturally higher temperature coefficient, using its own resistance tables and calibration constants that are not interchangeable with IEC equations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practice, you cannot mix the polynomial constants from IEC 60751 with the resistance table for GOST 6651-2009; each belongs to its own standard family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Same 0 \u00b0C Resistance, Different Values at Higher Temperatures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both sensors are defined as Pt100, so at 0 \u00b0C their resistance is exactly 100 \u03a9. However, at 100 \u00b0C and above, their resistance values are noticeably different, and this directly creates large temperature errors if you mix sensors and instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practical terms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A 391-curve probe (GOST 6651-2009) connected to a 385-curve instrument (IEC 60751) will read significantly higher than the true temperature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A 385-curve probe connected to a 391-curve instrument will read significantly lower than the true temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For typical process ranges, the error can quickly reach tens of degrees Celsius, so the two curves are not interchangeable in real plant operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Different Application Scenarios and Instrument Ecosystems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because the standards and curves are different, each Pt100 type is \u201cnative\u201d to a different equipment ecosystem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>IEC 60751, \u03b1 = 0.00385<\/strong><br>Used across Chinese, European, American and Japanese equipment. PLCs, temperature controllers, paperless recorders and RTD transmitters are almost always based on the IEC 385 curve by default, and most industrial temperature instruments in these markets assume IEC 60751.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GOST 6651-2009, \u03b1 = 0.003910<\/strong><br>Mainly used on Russian, Belarusian and Kazakh industrial equipment, especially older boilers, chemical and metallurgical installations. Only instruments designed for Russian and CIS standards support the 391 curve; typical international temperature controllers do not offer this option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, the sensor and instrument must belong to the same curve family to be compatible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Subtle Differences in Additional Technical Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both standards specify a nominal operating range of \u2212200 \u00b0C to +850 \u00b0C and a minimum measurement span of 10 K, but they differ in how they define accuracy and test methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>IEC 60751<\/strong><br>Specifies accuracy classes AA, A and B, self-heating limits, AC measurement properties and insulation requirements, providing a unified quality-control framework globally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GOST 6651-2009<\/strong><br>Uses Russian-style test procedures, tolerance definitions and ageing requirements aligned with the CIS metrology system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical Selection and Usage Advice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To avoid hidden measurement errors in real projects, it is essential to match the sensor curve with the instrument curve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Do not mix 385 and 391 curves<\/strong><br>The probe and the instrument curve must match exactly; 0.00385 and 0.00391 Pt100 curves cannot be swapped without reconfiguring or recalibrating the instrument.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Domestic and international projects<\/strong><br>For domestic Chinese projects and imported European, American or Japanese equipment, always choose Pt100 according to IEC 60751 with \u03b1 = 0.00385.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Russian and CIS legacy equipment<\/strong><br>For older Russian and CIS machines and plants, the correct choice is Pt100 according to GOST 6651-2009 with \u03b1 = 0.003910.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use instruments with curve selection<\/strong><br>If the instrument supports curve selection in its parameters, you can switch between 385 and 391 profiles to adapt to the installed sensor instead of changing hardware.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although both Pt100 IEC 60751 and Pt100 GOST 6651-2009 share the same nominal resistance at 0 \u00b0C and similar operating ranges, their temperature coefficients and resistance curves are fundamentally different. Mixing a 385-curve sensor with a 391-curve instrument (or vice versa) can create large hidden temperature errors and process risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For safe and accurate temperature measurement, always confirm which Pt100 standard your instruments use, and keep sensors and instruments on the same curve. When in doubt, consult a specialist to verify compatibility and select the right Pt100 type for your project.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In industrial temperature measurement, \u201cPt100\u201d is often treated as a single concept, but in practice there are at least two incompatible Pt100 standards: the IEC 60751 Pt100 and the GOST 6651-2009 Pt100 used in Russian and CIS equipment.
