RS PRO Thermocouple & Extension Wire Type K

RS PRO Fibreglass Stainless Steel Overbraid Thermocouple 4 core Cable, 25 m

Introducing the range of RS PRO High-Temperature Fibreglass Thermocouple Cables, ideal for use as general-purpose extension wire in a variety of environments. This type of cable has an overbraid of stainless steel, glass fibre insulated also with a glass fibre jacket and the pairs laid flat 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 glass fibre insulation which can be used in any normal air ambient temperatures, the glass fibre will even hold out to hot spots that may occur that PVC or PFA would not be able to withstand.

Features and Benefits

• This RS PRO glass fibre insulated Thermocouple cabling is suitable for use in environments that will have hotspots occur that PVC and PFA insulated cables will suffer under
• This type of cable has an excellent temperature range, from –60°C up to +350°C (short periods of time up to 400°C), meaning it can perform in both cryogenic and high-temperature environments, making it incredibly versatile
• Multipair cables solve the problem of multiple single pair cables which can build up taking up space, looking untidy and can cause hazards
• Stainless steel braided sheath for mechanical protection making the cable durable and reliable with an extra layer of protection

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

Note:
This thermocouple cable has a good temperature resistance but is not suitable where fluids are present
