The ITS-90 specifies the Isotech 108462 copper point SPRT to the freezing point of silver, 961.78°C. Thermocouples can be used outside of this temperature, but it is difficult to see small changes in temperature. For a type R thermocouple, the voltage sensitivity at the copper point is 14µV/°C; a change of 1µV equals a voltage change of 71mK. When using thermocouples the electrical noise limits the ability to follow small changes in the copper freeze plate and therefore attention was focused on the development of a new resistance thermometer to allow better measurements.
Isotech has a long history of making SPRTs up to the Silver Point (Model 96178) and this experience was combined with new research to produce the new copper point SPRT (Model 108462).
Ro is nominally 0.25Ω the same as the Silver Point SPRT but the platinum winding is held in place on a new type of synthetic sapphire mandrel. The platinum ‘likes’ oxidizing but ‘hates’ reducing atmospheres. The jacket of the thermometer is made of aluminium oxide. It is filled with air and thus surrounded by 20% oxygen. Unique is that the jacket is connected to a small air pump to pressurize the 108462 with air. This allows any leakage to come out, while maintaining an oxygen-rich atmosphere around the winding. This is what gives the thermometer its stability.

"The ABB Power Grids Jumet organisation is an innovative development and production facility of ABB that manufactures active filters and battery energy storage systems to support a stable grid. To test these systems we have acquired two Cinergia GE/EL +120kVA eplus units capable of doing grid emulation (AC + DC), operating as an electronic load (AC +DC) and being a battery emulator. We have experienced very good support from TTMS in obtaining these two Cinergia units. This included organising an on-site demonstration and supplying loan systems prior to the delivery of our final systems. This way we could start testing as early as possible. TTMS also organised training for the operators from the original manufacturer. This support allowed us to introduce the first battery energy storage systems even prior to the full delivery of the Cinergia systems."

“At the Energy and Environment department of the Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine (FSTM) of the University of Luxembourg we do have different research projects related to green energy contributing to the development of eco-cities. As a long-standing partner of our research unit, TT&MS has proven that they are able to answer even the most complex questions in a professional manner. They have shown that they are always up to date with the latest technology and do not spare any effort to look at the application and even the situation on site. The exchange of ideas was always very pleasant and took place quickly. We look forward to further years of fruitful cooperation.”
