Type K Compensating Cable – Reliability in Temperature Measurement

This Type K compensating cable, designated KCASiLSiu 2x0.22, is a key element in temperature measurement and control systems. Made from high-quality materials, it provides precise and stable readings even in harsh industrial conditions. This cable is particularly recommended for applications requiring flexibility and resistance to high temperatures.

Construction and Materials

The cable is characterized by a solid construction designed for long-term operation. Its structure includes:

• Wires: made of NiCr-NiAl alloy, providing appropriate thermoelectric characteristics for Type K.
• Wire Insulation: silicone, guaranteeing temperature resistance in the range of -60°C to +180°C.
• Braid: made of galvanized steel wires, increasing mechanical strength and protecting against damage.
• Sheath: silicone, providing additional protection against external factors and high temperatures.

This combination of materials makes the cable ideal for use in aggressive industrial environments.

Application and Benefits

Type K compensating cable is widely used in various industries, including:

• Metallurgical industry: temperature measurement in furnaces and heat treatment processes.
• Chemical industry: monitoring temperature in reactors and technological processes.
• Food industry: temperature control in food production and storage processes.
• Energy sector: temperature measurement in power plants and heating systems.

By choosing this cable, you gain:

• Wide operating temperature range: from -60°C to +180°C (silicone insulation), and for Type K thermocouples even up to 1200°C.
• High flexibility: facilitates installation and routing of cables in tight spaces.
• Resistance to external factors: ensures reliable operation even in harsh industrial conditions.
• Expandability: option to order control cables with PVC or silicone insulation, with a number of cores from 1 to 25 and a cross-section from 0.5 to 2.5 mm².
• Mechanical strength: thanks to the galvanized steel braid, the cable is resistant to mechanical damage during installation and operation.

Additionally, it is possible to manufacture cables with a special construction. Remember that compensating cables are used to connect a thermocouple to the measuring system – enabling safe temperature reading of the process even in extreme conditions.
