Rugged flexible Thermocouple cables for hot, harsh environments introduced by Cicoil
VALENCIA, Calif., 24 Oct. 2013. Cicoil Corp. in Valencia, Calif., is introducing flexible Thermocouple rugged cables for continuous motion, tight routing, excessive temperatures and extremely harsh environments.
The Cicoil flexible 28 AWG flat Thermocouple cable operates in temperatures from -65 to 260 degrees Celsius, and is available in type J and K versions with 1 to 8 conductors.
Applications include temperature sensing, control instrumentation, heating systems, and automated equipment. The compact, flame retardant solution is free of halogens and contaminants, and is engineered to provide space and weight savings, durability and mission-critical reliability.
Cicoil's extrusion process allows each Thermocouple conductor to be placed in a flat profile, precisely controlling the spacing of each component, insulation thickness and the overall cable shape.
The tear resistant Flexx-Sil jacket also is self-healing from small punctures and will not wear, crack, or deform due to long term exposure to tight routing, vibration, heat, continuous flexing, water, ice, steam, sunlight, humidity, ozone, UV light, autoclave, and many chemicals.
Standard off the shelf type J and K Thermocouple cables with connectors come in 3-, 6-, and 12-foot lengths. Custom designs also are available. In addition, Cicoil offers anti-friction coatings, influence resistant Super Tuff jacketing and custom shape designs by request.
Cicoil's Flexx-Sil-jacketed Thermocouple cables are UL and CSA recognized, CE conforming, RoHS 2 and REACH compliant, class 1 clean room rated and are manufactured in an automated, climate controlled environment.
