K-type compensating wire, 2*1.5mm², application
Thermocouple compensating wire and cable (high-temperature resistant) are insulated conductors with a nominal value of the matching electromotive force within a certain temperature range (including high and normal temperatures). They are used to connect thermocouples to measuring devices, compensating for the temperature variations at the connection point with the thermocouple to minimize errors. This product is suitable for electrical connections between various types of thermocouples (S, K, E, T, J, N) and temperature indicating instruments, enhancing measurement accuracy.
