| Flame retardant
PVC insulation provides excellent chemical and abrasion resistance.
UL listed constructions are also available. Nylon constructions
are available for applications requiring a small diameter and/or
a 250°F (121°C) temperature rating. |

| These fluoropolymers
are rated for use from –328°F (-200°C) up to high tempera-tures
shown for each construction. They are flame retardant and non-propagating
in fire conditions. All are moisture and chemical resistant and
accepted for use around food and pharmaceuticals. ETFE in addition
provides excellent cut through, crush, and abrasion resistance. |
ETFE 300°F (150°C)
FEP 400°F (200°C)
PFA 500°F (260°C) |

|
| A variety
of color coded polyimide film constructions are available with an
operating range of –328°F (-200°C) to +500°F (260°C)
continuous. They are highly resistant to abrasion and solvents and
are unaffected by extreme or rapid variations in temperature. PTFE
tape rated to 500°F (260°C) is also available. |
PTFE 500°F (260°C)
Polymide 500°F (260°C) |
|
|
A special
blend containing synthetic polyamide fibers that offer superior
physical characteristics. Its excellent thermal properties make
it ideally suited for continuous use at temperatures up to 500°F
(260°C) and intermittent use at higher tempera-tures.
When used as a jacket material it imparts superior abrasion resistance
compared to fiberglass. |
B-Fiber 500°F (260°C) |

| Patented
AUTOCLAVE THERMOCOUPLE. A connector plug molded-on to single extrusion
FEP or PFA insulated thermocouple wire with an exposed welded junction.
Eliminates leaks, loose connections and reversed polarity. Low temperature
operation to -328°F (-200°C). Also available as bulk wire
only. |
TE/D 400°F (200°C)
HTE/D 500°F (260°C) |
|
|
| Individual
conductors are insulated with fiberglass braid and may be ordered
twisted (with no jacket) or with an overall fiberglass jacket. Designed
for continuous use in high temperature applications. Reduced itch
"TUFFBOND" construction is available. |
Braided Fiberglass
G 950°F (510°C)
Q 1300°F (704°C) |
|
|
| Vitreous
silica fibers are braided on individual conductors and the construction
is completed with an overall braid of vitreous silica fiber. The
construction is specially designed for extreme temperature applications
to 1800°F (982°C). Supplied saturant free with or without
tracers in the negative leg. |
Braided Vitreous Silica
1800°F (982°C) |
|
|
| Designed
for extreme temperature applications. Ceramic fiber is braided on
the individual conductors and the jacket giving a continuous temperature
rating of 2200°F (1204°C). The ceramic fiber is flexible
throughout the extended temperature range. The high temperature
limit of CEFIR allows it to be used in areas where bead-ed ceramic
thermocouples or sheathed thermocouples were previously specified.
CEFIR is available with or without saturant or tracers. |
CEFIR 2200°F (1204°C) |

|
| A variety
of specialty metal coverings are available for use with insulated
wire. These coverings include stainless steel, tinned copper and
Inconel braids offering excellent cut through and abrasion protection
from low to high temperatures. |
