DETAIL
Constantan is a type of resistance alloy, which is made up of copper and nickel as the maim components. It has a low temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR),and a wide operating temperature range(below 500).It has good properties on mechanical working ,high resistance of corrosion.
It is used for variable and strain resistance elements in alternative instruments.
Manganin is a Copper-manganese-nickel Resistance alloy: It combines all the properties required of a precision electrical resistance alloy such as high resistivity, low temperature coefficient of resistance, very low thermal effect against copper and good performance of electrical resistance over long periods of time.
