Our Type S Compensating Cable with copper-nickel alloy conductors is all about precision and reliability in high-temperature industrial setups. Designed to connect Type S Thermocouple s (platinum-rhodium), this cable delivers top-tier accuracy with IEC 60584-2 Class 1 standards. The PVC insulation handles temperatures from -20°C to +105°C, making it a solid choice for moderate conditions. Rated for 300V, it’s built for tough industrial environments. The twisted pair design and optional tinned copper shielding keep electrical noise low, ensuring clean, accurate data. With stranded conductors for flexibility, this cable is perfect for complex installations where precision is non-negotiable.
The thermocouple cable market is growing strong, driven by industries like petrochemical, aerospace, and power generation that demand high-accuracy temperature monitoring. Compensating cables are gaining popularity for their cost-effectiveness in connecting thermocouples over long distances while maintaining precision. The push for automation and real-time data systems is increasing the need for low-noise, high-accuracy cables. PVC insulation remains a go-to for its durability, affordability, and flame-retardant properties, meeting standards like IEC 60332-1. Our Type S cable aligns perfectly with these trends, offering Class 1 accuracy and compliance with IEC 60584-3 and ANSI MC96.1 for reliable performance.
