THERMOCOUPLE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
A Thermocouple is a sensor used to measure temperature up to 1800 °C. There are many types of thermocouples, each with its own unique characteristics in terms of temperature range, durability, vibration resistance, chemical resistance, and application compatibility.
Types of Thermocouples:
Before discussing the various types of thermocouples, it should be noted that a thermocouple is often enclosed in a protective sheath to isolate it from the local atmosphere. This protective sheath drastically reduces the effects of corrosion.
1.Type K Thermocouple (Nickel-Chromium / Nickel-Alumel): The type K is the most common type of thermocouple. It’s inexpensive, accurate, reliable, and has a wide temperature range.
Temperature Range:
2. Type J Thermocouple (Iron/Constantan): The type J is also very common. It has a smaller temperature range and a shorter lifespan at higher temperatures than the Type K. It is equivalent to the Type K in terms of expense and reliability.

PTFE INSULATED WIRES & CABLES
PTFE Insulated wires and cables are divided into six sub-groups according to the construction and applications. The common features are:
PTFE Insulated wires and cables are divided into six sub-groups according to the construction and applications. The common features are:
Conductors
- Silver Plated Copper (SPC) for use up to 200°C (minimum 1 micron silver coating as per ASTM-B-298)
- Nickel Plated Copper (NPC) up to 260°C (minimum 1.25 micron nickel coating as per ASTM-B-355)
- Silver Plated High Strength Copper Alloy (SPHSCA) for mechanical strength in fine cross-sections and for superior flex-life (somewhat lower conductivity than copper) generally as per ASTM-B-624
- Pure Nickel for use up beyond 260°C; very high resistance to corrosion; DC resistance about 6 times that of copper at 20°C
- Resistance alloys for Thermo-Couple applications
- Silver Plated Copper Clad Steel (SPCCS) commonly used for RF coaxial cables) as per ASTM-B-501
- Spiral multi-strands on glass-fibre cord for high linear resistance — generally for heating applications
- Plain copper or Tinned copper can not be used due to high-temperature processing and applications; tin melts and flows into the interstices of stranding to make the conductor inflexible; copper tends to oxidize and become brittle
Sizes/Strandings
- Single strands from 0.05 to 1.02 mm (0.002″ to 0.040″), or more
- 7, 19, 37, 61 true concentric strands, or 133 strands rope-lay (19 x 7)
- Even AWG sizes from AWG 34 to AWG 6 (AWG 4 under development)
- Odd AWG sizes and other type of strandings/bunchings also available
- Integrated conductor facilityensures tighter control on resistance, diameter, finish etc.
- For further details, please refer to size table
Insulation/Dielectricis always PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene CF4) which is the safest, cleanest, and most stable fluoro-carbon. Click here for Properties of PTFE. Multi-lap tape-wrapped sintered for
- 250 V AC RMS (so called Type ET with nominal 0.17 mm radial wall thickness in 3 layers
- 600 V AC RMS (Type E, 0.25 mm – 0.010″ – nominal radial wall)
- 1000 V AC RMS (Type EE, 0.38 mm – 0.015″ – nominal radial wall)

Compounded PTFE for High Voltage Cables; Sandwiched Polyimide (Kapton ®) Film for protection of PTFE from radiation.
Colours are 10 standard electronic as per MIL-STD-104, plus shades and stripes; details here
Metal Shields/Sheaths
- Round wire silver plated copper (SPC) or nickel plated copper (NPC)
- SPC or Plain Copper Flat Foil
- SS wires
Shielding methods
- Braided
- Served for lower overall diameter, especially for triaxial constructions
- Aluminised Polyester Film with drain wire (not compatible with PTFE jackets)
- Combination of Flat foil with round wire braid or Aluminised Polyester with round wire braid
Jackets/Outer Coveringsover shields are mainly of PTFE (upto 12 mm OD); larger sizes are difficult with PTFE. PVC or Silicone Varnished Fibre Glass or Polyurethane are available for such cases (or otherwise).
Armour (for armoured cables): Galvanized steel round wire / strip
Outer sheath: PVC – HR / FR / FRLS; PE, LSZH
