Thermocouple and RTD Connectors are available in types J/K/T and RTD and carry a temperature rating of 200˚C.
The extension wire material must match the material used in the positive and negative leg of the thermocouple type (e.g. type K) being used in the application. If a transmitter is installed within the thermocouple sensor assembly, copper wire is typically used in place of thermocouple extension wire to send the scalable (4 to 20) mA signal back to the process control equipment.
RTD sensors use ordinary copper instrumentation cable to send the resistance signal back to the recording, readout or control device. If a transmitter is installed within the RTD sensor assembly, copper wire is typically used to send the scalable (4 to 20) mA signal back to the process control equipment.
Pyromation stocks and sells a variety of sizes and gauges of thermocouple grade and extension wire, as well as wire insulators. We also offer special construction thermocouple wire and RTD cable, including multi-pair thermocouple extension wire.
- Pyromation Thermocouple and RTD connectors are sold in packs of 10.
- All Pyromation products are built to order and typically ship 2-4 business days after we receive your order.
- If you have a specific requirement or need a thermocouple you don't see listed just send us a note and we'll get you a quote.
