Type K Thermocouple Cable/Wire, 5m, Unscreened, Glass Fibre Insulation, +350°C Max, 1/0.315mm

Description

BS Type ’KX’ Glassfibre Extension Thermocouple Cable, 5 m

Introducing the range of Glassfibre Insulated Thermocouple Cables, ideal for use as general-purpose extension wire in high-temperature environments. The cable has conductors laid flat, are glassfibre insulated with glassfibre overall and silicone varnished throughout which offers protection and insulation of the wires, and high reliability, especially when being used for a long period of time in challenging environments. The cables have a tolerance class of 2 making this type of cable have a good temperature resistance but not suitable where fluids are present. The thermocouple cables can be used in a wide range of temperatures from –60°C to 350°C (with short periods up too 400).

Features and Benefits:

• This glassfibre insulated thermocouple 5m cable is suitable for use as an extension cable in high-temperature environments
• The extension cable has an excellent temperature range, from –60°C up to +350°C (short periods up to 400), meaning it can perform in both extremely low and high-temperature environments making it incredibly versatile
• Made with glassfibre insulation ensures that it is able to deal with hotspots of up to 400 for short periods of time that could damage PVC or PFA
• Tolerance class of 2
• This cable is available in 5, 10, 25 and 50 metre lengths
• Good temperature resistance but not suitable where liquids are present
• Colour coded cores and jacket to former British Standard – BS1843-1952

Applications:

Thermocouple extension wires or cabling is an ideal accessory when working with thermocouple installation. This type of cable can add additional flexibility and versatility to an existing thermocouple and are offered in a wide range of constructions from simple flat laid pairs to screened cables to suit any combination and application they are needed for. Thermocouple extension cables can often be found in:

Research and development:

Thermostats in homes and offices
Manufacturing, engineering and production environments
