Compensation cable type R/S R/SCSiLSiu 2x1.5 mm² 18048910

Compensating cable for type R/S thermocouples – reliability in extreme conditions

This high-quality type R/S compensating cable, catalog number 18048910, is designed for reliable connection of thermocouples to measuring systems. Its construction and materials ensure stable signal transmission even in harsh industrial conditions. This cable is particularly useful where high temperature resistance and an aggressive environment are required.

Construction and materials – the key to durability

The cable is characterized by a solid construction, ensuring long-term and trouble-free operation. It consists of:

• Conductor: Made of special metal or metal alloys (PtRh13-Pt, PtRh10-Pti), which guarantees appropriate thermoelectric characteristics.
• Insulation: Made of silicone, providing flexibility and resistance to high temperatures.
• Braid: Made of galvanized steel wires, which protects the cable from mechanical damage and provides additional strength.
• Sheath: Made of silicone, further protecting against external factors.

This combination of materials allows operation in a wide temperature range – from -60°C to +180°C for silicone, and even up to 1600°C for type R thermocouples (PtRh13-PT) according to IEC 584-3.

Application and benefits – for the installer and user

The type R/S compensating cable finds application in many industries, including:

• Power industry: For temperature measurement in boilers, turbines and other power equipment.
• Metallurgical industry: For monitoring temperature in metallurgical and foundry processes.
• Chemical industry: For temperature measurement in chemical reactors and other process installations.
• Food industry: For temperature control in food production processes.

Thanks to its construction, this cable enables:

• Precise temperature measurement: Stable signal transmission ensures accurate temperature readings even in difficult conditions.
• Safe operation: Resistance to high temperatures and aggressive environments minimizes the risk of failure and ensures safe operation of measuring devices.
• Installation flexibility: Silicone insulation provides cable flexibility, making it easier to install and route in tight spaces.
• Expandability: The option to order control cables (1-25 cores, cross-section 0.5 – 2.5 mm²) allows integration with control and automation systems. Possibility of manufacturing cables with a special construction tailored to individual customer needs.

Additionally, it is worth mentioning the possibility of manufacturing cables with a special construction – which gives a great deal of freedom in adapting the product to specific application requirements.
