Compensation cables are connecting cables with conductors made of materials which only in a limited temperature range have the same thermoelectric properties as the thermocouple itself. Compensating cables are marked with a C behind the identification letter for the thermocouple.
For example, KC means that the cable is a compensating cable for the thermocouple type K.
The insulation of the conductors as well as of the sheaths can be made of a variety of materials.
The following criteria must be taken into consideration when selecting the appropriate material: chemical and mechanical resistance against the ambient conditions, temperature range, insulation resistance, flexibility, outside diameter, screening etc.
Apart from that there is a great number of cable types available as compensating cables or extension cables as well as those with more than two inner conductors.
Leveraging on our cutting edge technology, we bring forth the most qualitative range of Thermocouple Cables. Our Thermocouple Cables conform to all industrial standards, both Indian as well as International. Having myriad applications, the cables are very reasonably priced. In general, the Thermocouple Cables are connected to other processing instruments by connecting cables, which are further divided into compensating cables and extension cables. The compensating cables and extension cables have their sub divisions as solid and stranded conductors.
