General Information on Thermocouple Connectors:
Thermocouple and RTD mini connectors are critical for maintaining the accuracy of temperature measurement systems. We offer a full range of mini connectors for various sensor types, including J, K, T, E, and RTD, all carrying a standard temperature rating of 200°C.
It is crucial that the extension wire material matches the material of the thermocouple's positive and negative legs (e.g., Type K wire for a Type K sensor). Using dissimilar metals will introduce errors in the temperature reading. However, if a transmitter is installed within the sensor assembly, it converts the thermocouple's millivolt signal to a more robust 4-20 mA analog signal. In this case, standard copper instrument wire can be used to transmit the signal back to the process control equipment.
Pyromation is your single source for all thermocouple and RTD wiring needs. We stock a comprehensive variety of thermocouple grade wire, extension wire, and insulators in various sizes and gauges. We also provide special construction options, such as multi-pair extension wire and custom RTD cables, to meet the specific demands of your application.
