Glass wire wound platinum RTD elements are made by winding a platinum wire onto a glass core and then fusing the exterior with glass. They are suitable for low or very high temperatures and are tolerant of thermal shocks. They offer good vibration resistance (depending on mounting method) and can be immersed (with exception of GX) directly into liquid media.
What is the recommended lead wire that we would use with these RTDs?
How would the lead wires connect to the RTD leads?
If we used a 3 meter (9.8 ft) lead to a meter for measuring how would this effect the temperature reading?

You will need to use RTD extension wire. You can use silver solder to connect the extension wire to the leads.
