Extension- and compensating cables, paired
PVC, silicone, FEP or glass fibre-insulated
Extension and compensating cables, single-paired version - suitable for use in temperature measurement and manufacturing process control
- Available in many different designs
- New: thermocouple cable type K
Norm references / Approvals
- Space-saving and flexible
- For more detailed information, see appendix T8 and data sheets
Application range
- Allows temperature measurement even in places where non-contact temperature measurement is not possible or reasonable
- The thermocouple is used to measure temperature as a part of monitoring the manufacturing process, thus the sheath material should be selected with reference to the maximum ambient temperature at its junction.
- Conductor materials (alloys):
Fe/CuNi (LX, JX)
Conductor alloys are identical to thermocouple alloys - NiCr/Ni (K, KX, KCA)
K and KX version - conductor alloys are identical to thermocouple alloys
KCA version: compensating alloys (for KCA: Fe/CuNi), not identical to thermocouple alloys - PtRh/Pt (RCB, SCB)
Compensating alloys (for RCB, SCB: Cu/CuNi) are not identical to thermocouple alloys
