Thermocouple OPTITEMP TCA-M40

insertionIP65high-temperature

Thermocouple (TC) cable sensor for machinery and high temperature applications • Compression fitting connection • Mineral insulated, with connection head type BA, available with various sheath materials • -40…+1250°C / +2282°F The OPTITEMP TCA-M40 is a mineral insulated (MI) thermocouple with a connection head type BA. The MI cable sensor is particularly suitable for applications where the temperature of the environment exceeds the maximum allowable temperature of standard cable material (e.g. in test bench applications). The MI cable can be easily formed to fit into limited spaces. Its small diameter makes it perfect to provide fast response times. The OPTITEMP TCA-M40 is mechanically and thermally very stable. It is available with thermocouple type J, K or N, single (standard) or double (optional), according to IEC 60584 class 1. The connecting wires are colour coded according to IEC 60584. The measuring point can be ordered as isolated (standard) or grounded (optional). The MI thermocouple sensor is best used for measuring high process temperatures of gases and liquids (up to +1250°C / +2282°F), at low to medium pressures and flow velocities.
