Warm-up time

The warm-up time denotes the amount of time it takes for the sensor to attain its highest accuracy or performance level once the voltage supply has been applied. The warm-up time helps to achieve a thermo-mechanical balance in the measuring system as well as an optimal operating temperature of the electronic components. Typically, this optimal operating temperature is reached after 5 to 30 minutes.
