Core Value
In modern thermal processing and automated monitoring systems, signal accuracy over distance is critical. The 100m K Type Thermocouple Wire High Temperature Sensor Cable delivers zero-drift, millivolt-level signal transmission between distant sensors and central control panels. By using Grade 1 NiCr-NiSi thermocouple wire (Chromel-Alumel) conductors, this cable eliminates measurement errors caused by temperature fluctuations along the wiring path.
Enclosed in a bright, standardized ANSI K type wire yellow jacket, this temperature sensor cable allows instant visual identification in crowded cable trays and control panels. Whether deployed as a K type compensation wire or extended as a long-run thermocouple extension wire, its superior fluoropolymer or braided fiberglass insulation resists oil, moisture, chemical vapors, and mechanical flexing. Each 100m thermocouple cable roll from Hongtai Heater Factory undergoes rigorous resistance and insulation testing, ensuring flawless performance for continuous multi-channel temperature logging.
- ✓High-Purity Alloy Core: Built with Class 1 NiCr-NiSi thermocouple wire conductors to ensure true Class 1 temperature measurement accuracy.
- ✓ANSI Yellow Jacket: Bright ANSI K type wire yellow outer insulation provides clear visual recognition and reduces installation errors.
- ✓Convenient 100m Roll Packaging: The 100m thermocouple cable roll is wrapped in protective film, making it easy to store, handle, and cut to custom lengths on-site.
- ✓High Heat & Chemical Resistance: Designed as a heavy-duty high temperature thermocouple wire, it withstands harsh industrial environments without insulation degradation.
- ✓Versatile Extension Capability: Functions seamlessly as a K type compensation wire or thermocouple extension wire for all Type K sensors.

Installation & Integration Guidelines
- Observe Strict Polarity: When stripping the 100m K Type Thermocouple Wire, maintain correct polarity alignment. Under ANSI standards, the Yellow wire is Positive (+) and the Red wire is Negative (-).
- Avoid High-Voltage Parallel Runs: Route the temperature sensor cable away from 380V/220V power lines, motor leads, or VFD outputs to prevent electromagnetic noise induction.
- Proper Termination: Use specialized thermocouple alloy terminals or spot-welded joints when connecting this K type compensation wire to avoid secondary thermal EMF junctions.
- Roll Storage: Keep unused portions of the 100m thermocouple cable roll in its original protective wrapping to shield the insulation from ambient dust, moisture, and chemical fumes.
