Solid PVC Thermocouple Extension Cable Type T For Electrical Equipment

Type T Thermocouple Extension Cable

Conductor specification

TYPE T (Copper vs Constantan) is used or service in oxidizing, inert or reducing atmospheres or in vacuum. It is highly resistant to corrosion from atmospheric moisture and condensation and exhibits high stability at low temperatures. It is the only type with limits of error guaranteed for cryogenic temperatures.

1. Chemical Composition

2. Physical Properties and Mechnical Properties

In actual temperature measurement, usually there are long measuring distance with the measuring device, a thermocouple compensation wire is generated to compensate the temperature difference caused by the temperature change between the measuring device and the thermocouple connecting piece.

The compensation cable has the following advantages: improving thermocouple temperature measurement line physical properties and mechanical properties; improving the measurement line flexibility and making the connection convenient by using multi-strand core or small-diameter compensation wire; easy to shield external interference; reducing measuring lines cost.

Thermocouple Cable Grade

A:Extension Grade Cable

Whose wire composition is totally as the same as the thermocouple wire, remarked by the letter"X"after the thermocouple symbol number, such as"KX""JX""TX"

B:Compensation Grade Cable

Whose wire composition is different from the thermocouple wire, but its wire electromotive force (EMF) value is the same as thermocouple wire only at 0-100ºC or 0-200ºC. It remarked by the letter"C"after the thermocouple symbol number, such as"KC""JC""TC"

1. For cost consideration, when the tested temperature under 200ºC, compensation grade cable is preferred. But compensation grade cable will occur enormous tested temperature value deviation if the tested temperature above 200ºC. The higher the tested temperature, the greater deviation be.
2. For compensation grade cable, the max testing temperature is less than 200ºC, the bigger the cable, the smaller the signal loss.
3. Extension cable and compensation cable comparison:
