K-Type compensating cable 2x1.50 mm² is an industrial measurement cable used to maintain the connection between the K-Type thermocouple sensor and the temperature measuring instrument or controller. It helps carry the thermoelectric signal received from the sensor to the control panel, indicator, data logger, PLC thermocouple input or temperature controller.
The product combines a silicone- and fiberglass-based insulation structure with a steel braid on the outside. This construction is prepared for use in fixed industrial connections where temperature effects and superficial mechanical stresses are present.
The two-core structure with nominal cross-section 2x1.50 mm² can be used in K-Type thermocouple measurement lines with suitable terminals and connectors. The product is supplied as a single 100-meter roll and can be cut to the lengths required for production, maintenance, control-panel assembly, and field wiring.
This product is not a standard power supply cable. It should be used in K-Type thermocouple measurement circuits. It must be verified that the sensor type, cable type, connector and device input are compatible with each other.
The insulation structure in the product information is specified as silicone + fiberglass + steel braid . The silicone and fiberglass layers help keep the cores electrically separated and protect the cable body.
Silicone-based insulation can be preferred in sensor and panel connections that require flexibility. The fiberglass structure supports the outer construction of the cable in fixed industrial connections where temperature effects are present.
The steel braid around the cable creates an auxiliary layer of protection against friction and surface mechanical effects. It contributes to the protection of the cable body in routes where there is a risk of contact, such as machine body, panel passage and cable duct.
The main function of the steel braid is mechanical protection. If it is planned to be used as an electrical shield, the electrical continuity of the braid, coverage rate, connection method and device manufacturer's instructions should also be evaluated.
Using a compensating cable compatible with the K-Type measurement circuit helps maintain the connection between the sensor and the device with the appropriate material structure. The actual measurement performance of the cable should be evaluated through the system formed by the sensor, cable, connection points, ambient temperature and measuring instrument.
Silicone- and fiberglass-based structure can be preferred in industrial sensor connections where temperature effects are present. However, the exact operating temperature of the cable should not be determined solely by looking at the insulation material.
The temperature limits of the conductor construction, insulation layers, steel braid, terminal, connector and connection points should be evaluated together. For exact operating temperature and thermoelectric tolerance values, the manufacturer's technical documentation should be used as the basis.
The steel braid does not transform the cable into a completely enclosed or leak-proof outer sheath. In environments where there is moisture, liquid, oil, chemicals or dense dust, the product's compliance with environmental conditions should also be checked.
The cable should not be subjected to excessive pulling force, crushing, sharp edges or repeated bending. Steel braid helps with mechanical protection, but does not provide unlimited protection against heavy mechanical loads.
In the K-Type thermocouple measurement circuit, the positive and negative conductors must be connected to the corresponding terminals on the sensor and measuring instrument. Before installation, sensor polarity, cable ends and device terminal markings must be checked.
Reverse polarity may cause the temperature change to appear in the wrong direction on the device or to incorrectly interpret the measurement value. The connection polarity from the sensor to the measuring instrument must be maintained.
Compensating cable, thermocouple terminal and connector compatible with K-Type must be used in the K-Type measurement circuit. Using standard copper cable or connection materials of different thermocouple types may create undesirable metal combinations in the measurement line.
While preparing the cable end, care should be taken to ensure that the steel braid wires do not come into contact with the measurement cores or device terminals. The shield must be properly removed and the connection area must be isolated in accordance with the application.
Compensating cable should be routed as far as possible from motor supply lines, inverter outputs, contactor lines and high-current power cables.
The product is supplied as a single 100-meter roll. Cutting can be done from the roll in lengths required by production, maintenance or field application.
When determining the cutting length, the actual route between the sensor and the measuring instrument, the distance within the panel, the turning points and the mounting allowance required for the terminal connection must be taken into account.
When unrolling, care should be taken to ensure that the cable is not knotted, crushed or bent to a smaller diameter than necessary. The unused section should be stored in a dry, clean area away from the risk of mechanical damage.
Cables used in production and maintenance processes 100-meter roll options are available for bulk purchase. You can choose the number of cores, nominal cross-sectional area, and insulation construction suitable for your application from the thermocouple, PT100, and compensating cables.
This product is aimed at production, maintenance and automation businesses that need a 100-meter roll of cable. Before ordering, the suitability of the sensor type, number of cores, cross-section, insulation structure and cable construction for the application should be checked.
When selecting K-Type compensating cable, thermocouple type, measuring instrument input, nominal cross-section, connection distance, insulation structure, mechanical protection need and environmental conditions should be evaluated together.
This product should be used for K-Type thermocouple measurement circuits. For J, T, N, E, R, S or different thermocouple types, a cable compatible with the relevant sensor type must be used.
When selecting the 2x1.50 mm² cross-section structure, the suitability of the device terminals to the cable cross-section should be checked. Direct connection of large cross-sectional cores to small terminal inlets may not be appropriate.
This product is prepared for use in temperature measurement circuits with K-Type thermocouple sensors.
The compensating cable helps to maintain the connection between the thermocouple sensor and the measuring or controller in accordance with the relevant thermocouple type.
This statement indicates that the cable consists of two cores and each core has a nominal conductor cross-section of 1.50 mm².
The product is supplied as a single 100-meter roll.
The cable can be used by cutting it from the roll to the lengths required by the application. Cutting and tip preparation should be done with appropriate equipment.
The combination of silicone and fiberglass helps insulate the cable cores and protect the cable body in fixed sensor connections where temperature influences are present.
The steel braid creates an auxiliary layer of mechanical protection around the cable. It helps protect the cable against friction and surface mechanical effects.
The main function of the steel braid is mechanical protection. In order to be considered an electrical shield, the electrical continuity of the braid, coverage structure, connection method and manufacturer's technical data must be checked.
No. This product is used for the connection of thermocouple measurement circuit. It should not be used to power motors, heating elements or other electrical loads.
It is suitable for businesses that produce regular sensors, carry out maintenance-repair work, prepare control panels or need compensating cables of different lengths.
The manufacturer's technical data sheet should be used as the basis for the conductor material of the cable, thermoelectric tolerance class, exact operating temperature, core colors, outer dimension, steel braid material, minimum bending radius and environmental resistance limits.
During product selection and installation, thermocouple type, measuring instrument input, cable cross-section, terminal structure, ambient temperature, humidity, mechanical loads and cabling route should be evaluated together.
