Type J Thermocouple Wire with PFA Insulation - Items tagged as "50ft"
Type JThermocouple Wirewith PFA Insulation
Type J thermocouple wire with PFA insulation can have excellent 1.1 F (0.5 C)Accuracy in the 212 to500°F (100 to260°C) temperaturerange
Industriesand Applicationswho commonly use Type J are automotive testing, heat treating of aluminum, curing composites, vacuum applications and the overall plastics processing
Wire Sizescan rangefrom fine diameter 40 gage (0.003") to the very large rugged 14 gage diameter (0.064"), although most applications utilize a narrower range of 30 gage (0.010") to 20 gage (0.032")
PFA Insulation is a Plastic Fluoropolymer and has a temperature insulation range from below zero to 500°F (260°C), it works well in wet and corrosive environments, with excellent resistance to chemicals.
Type Jbare thermocouple wire consists of the Positive wire made of Iron and the Negative wire made of Constantan (Nickel Copper alloy)
ANSI(American National Standard Institute) Color Code for Type J Thermocouple wire is White on the positive wire and Red on the Negative Wire.
The Positive Iron wire in the Type J thermocouple is susceptible to Corrosion and for the sensor to function properly in wet and or corrosive applications the wire should be completely encased or protected by the plastic insulation.
