PT-100: Not a thermocouple? / Range?

Hi,

Two things. First off, sorry to be a pedant, but isn't the PT-100 a resistance thermometer, and not an actual thermocouple?

Secondly, and with some actual bearing in the real world, does anyone know what the temperature range it can be used in is?

Many thanks,
Josh

Its a thermistor (thermally variable resistor), not a thermocouple. According to my 612 manual the range is -200 to 600 C.
