The EHS Thermocouple Extension Wire UP/ALPTW-20-KX is your reliable solution for extending the reach of Type K thermocouples while maintaining exceptional signal accuracy. This high-quality extension wire, provided on a generous 1080-foot spool, is specifically designed to accurately transmit the thermoelectric voltage generated by Type K sensors over significant distances, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial and laboratory applications.
The UP/AL designation indicates the use of positive and negative conductor materials compatible with the Chromel and Alumel alloys of Type K thermocouples, ensuring the integrity of your temperature readings. The PTW-20 likely signifies a durable and flexible insulation and jacketing material (possibly PVC) in a 20 AWG size, offering a robust yet manageable wire for various wiring needs. The twisted pair (TW) construction effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference, guaranteeing a cleaner and more reliable signal transmission. Finally, the KX designation confirms that this is genuine Type K extension grade wire, meeting the necessary specifications for accurate temperature measurement.
