Thermocouple (TC) cable sensor for machinery and high temperature applications • Compression fitting connection • Mineral insulated, with insulated flying wires, available with various sheath materials • -40…+1250°C / +2282°F The OPTITEMP TCA-M20 is a mineral insulated (MI) thermocouple with insulated flying wires for installation where connection terminals already exist. The MI cable sensor is particularly suitable for applications where the ambient temperature 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-M20 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 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.
