Thermocouple connectors are specifically designed to allow thermocouples to be quickly connected and disconnected from the extension wire. The connector pair is composed of a male plug and female jack. The male plug will have two pins for single thermocouples and four pins for dual thermocouples. RTD temperature sensors will have three pins. Thermocouple plugs and jacks are manufactured with thermocouple alloys to insure accuracy through out the thermocouple circuit. Thermocouple Type R, S,connectors use compensating alloys.
Thermocouple connectors have two types of pins. The standard sized male plugs have polarized round pins. The polarized pins prevent mismatched connections. Thermocouple connectors can also be ordered in a smaller compact size which are typically called mini thermocouple plugs and jacks. The male mini thermocouple plugs have smaller flat polarized plugs.
Thermocouple plugs and jacks can be ordered in a variety of body materials with various temperature ratings to suite your application. High Purity Alumina Ceramic Thermocouple Connectors are also available for high temperature applications up to 1202°F.
All thermocouple Connectors can be ordered in Type E, J, K, T, R, S, and B thermocouple calibrations and with ANSI or IEC Color Coded bodies.
K type thermocouple wire with FEP insulation
The thermocouple compensation cables can also be termed as instrumentation cables, since they are used for process temperature measurement. The construction is similar to pair instrumentation cable but the conductor material is different. Thermocouples are used in processes to sense temperature and is connected to the pyrometers for indication and control. The thermocouple and pyrometer are electrically conducted by thermocouple extension cables / thermocouple compensating cables. The conductors used for these thermocouple cables are required to have similar thermo-electric (emf) properties as that of the thermocouple used for sensing the temperature.
Our plant mainly manufacture type KX,NX,EX,JX,NC,TX,SC/RC,KCA,KCB compensating wire for thermocouple, and they are used in temperature measurement instruments and cables. Our thermocouple compensating products are all made abiding by GB/T 4990-2010 'Alloy wires of extension and compensating cables for thermocouples' (Chinese National Standard), and also IEC584-3 'Thermocouple part 3-compensating wire' (International standard).
Insulation material and color can be custom made as per your request.
