Characteristics
Construction
Type : thermocouple cable
Couple(s) : K: Nickel – chrome / Nickel – alloy, E: Nickel – chrome / Copper Nickel E
Insulation : ceramic
Colour of insulated wire(s) : grey

Standard : couple K : 2x AWG 32 / 28 / 24, couple E : 2x AWG 32 / 28
Options : please consult our data sheet
Application
General use : thermocouple cables with CERAFIL® insulation to measure the temperature in contained environments subject to extreme heat
General characteristics
Fire behaviour : totally non-combustible at temperatures over 1,000°C, CERAFIL® may melt but cannot catch fire
Humidity : product sensitive to moisture (hydrophilic)
Radiation resistance : withstands prolonged exposure to neutrons and gamma rays without altering the mechanical resistance of the insulating material
Use : ceramic is very different from traditional insulating materials. This material is rigid and hydrophilic and therefore special care must be taken when using it. Please contact us if you need further information
Thermal characteristics
Continuous operating temperature : -90°C to +500°C (peak +1000°C)
Electrical characteristics
Test voltage : 150Vac / 212Vdc
Electromotive force : please consult our technical data sheet
