4008400130 Temperature Sensor PT100 400GR Thermal Resistor For Homag Edge Bander

Need a straight answer before you order? The 4008400130 is the PT100 temperature sensor used on Homag and Brandt edge banding machines, and it is listed under a second Homag number, 4-008-40-0130. It is a platinum resistance thermometer: 100 Ω at 0 °C, with no heater and nothing to set inside the part. You order it by number, not from a photo. Packing is a standard carton box, shipping is FedEx, UPS or DHL, and price is quoted per order against quantity and destination.

When a temperature sensor fails on an edge bander, three things go wrong at once. The controller hunts around its set point, the operator keeps adjusting a value that no longer means anything, and panels run through a heated section nobody can confirm. The fourth problem is the order: a probe picked from a photo arrives with the wrong termination.

The 4008400130 is the PT100 thermal resistor that reports temperature on Homag and Brandt edge banding machines. Both Homag numbering formats are published for it, 4008400130 and 4-008-40-0130, so a parts list printed either way resolves to one item. PT100 is the sensor class: a platinum resistance thermometer reading 100 Ω at 0 °C on a standardized, published resistance curve.

Nothing inside the part needs setting. The element sits on a short probe stem on a single-hole mounting bracket, resistance rises with heat, and the lead carries that change to the controller. That is why a PT100 swap is like-for-like, not a calibration job: the curve belongs to the class.

The lead is a stainless steel braided cable, strain-relieved where it leaves the probe and fitted with three fork lugs for the terminal block. Each sensor ships in a standard carton box by FedEx, UPS or DHL; price is quoted per order against quantity and destination.

A PT100 spare is decided by three things: the part number, the sensor class, and whether it lands back on the same terminal block.

• Part number 4008400130 — the primary Homag number; the same sensor is also listed as 4-008-40-0130, so either format on your parts list matches.
• PT100 element — a platinum resistance thermometer reading 100 Ω at 0 °C, the reference point the controller is scaled to.
• Resistance output, no local electronics — the element changes resistance with heat and the lead sends it back; no heater, no setting inside.
• Bracket-mounted probe — a short probe stem on a single-hole flange, so it fixes with one screw where the old sensor sat.
• Braided cable — stainless steel overbraid from probe to terminal, with a moulded strain relief at the probe end.
• Three fork lugs — three conductors, each on a colour-sleeved fork lug, so wiring can be matched lug for lug.
• Two catalogue names — listed as thermal resistor and as resistor thermometer, which helps when the old label is worn.
• Homag and Brandt application — specified as a spare for Homag Brandt edge banders, not a general-purpose probe.
• Carton box packing — one sensor per standard carton, so it goes onto the shelf without a repack.

A dead sensor leaves two options: pull one out of a drawer of look-alike probes, or hold the machine until a part with the right number arrives. This is the second way.

• One number, two formats. 4008400130 and 4-008-40-0130 are both published, so a parts list printed either way still finds the sensor.
• Ordered by number, not by picture. Both formats are on this page, so the order is matched to a number instead of to a description of what the part looks like.
• Termination already decided. Three fork lugs in colour sleeves let you match the wiring lug for lug before the old sensor comes off the block.
• The mounting is repeatable. A single-hole flange means the new probe goes back on the same fixing, at the same depth, without shimming.
• A protected run. Stainless steel overbraid covers the conductors from probe to terminal, so the wires are not bare along the machine frame.
• A known reference point. 100 Ω at 0 °C is what the controller divides against, so the reading returns to a defined scale.
• No calibration step. The PT100 curve is set by the class, so the part goes in and the controller reads in degrees again.

It fits if your old part carries 4008400130 or 4-008-40-0130. Both numbers are published for this sensor and the application is given as spares for Homag Brandt edge banders, so read the number off the old sensor or off the machine's parts list and compare before you order.

It is part of the catalogue designation, and the parameter file does not define it, so treat it as text to match rather than as a temperature rating. Order by 4008400130 and keep 400GR on the reference line, so the two are matched when the enquiry is answered.

This page does not quote a range, because the parameter file does not give one. What is defined is the reference point: 100 Ω at 0 °C, with the standardized PT100 curve through it. Check your controller's scaling and the old part before you buy if your process runs near the top of a PT100 span.

It is a PT100, meaning a platinum resistance thermometer, not a thermocouple. A thermocouple generates a small voltage at a junction; this element changes resistance, so the two are not interchangeable on one input.

Follow the old sensor's order, lug for lug. Three conductors come out on colour-sleeved fork lugs, and on a three-wire PT100 the compensation lead has to land on the terminal the controller expects, so photograph the block before you disconnect.

It is a sensor. Nothing in the part heats up: the element measures, the braided cable carries the signal, and the controller decides what the temperature means.

In a standard carton box, and out by FedEx, UPS or DHL. One sensor goes in a standard carton, and the carrier is picked against your delivery address when the order is placed.

Send the machine model, the old part number and the quantity, and the price comes back against that combination. Pricing is quoted per order rather than listed, and the delivery date is confirmed with the quote.
