Thermocouple cables convert temperature into electrical voltage through thermoelectricity. A thermocouple is a component that consists of two different metallic alloys that are connected to each other at one end. Temperature differences generate a heat flow and thus a thermoelectric voltage, which is read out at a measuring point.
Thermocouple cables are always used directly at the measuring point. Compensation cables act as an extension from the end of the measuring point to the readout device. Extension cables fulfill both requirements, but have additional measurement tolerance limits. We produce all of these types in a wide variety of cross-sections, diameters and numbers of pairs.
