Extension Cables

Extension cables are connecting cables with conductors made of thermocouple material, i.e. of the same material as the thermocouple itself. Extension cables therefore are subject to the same accuracy limits as the thermocouples. Extension cables are marked with an „X“ behind the identification letter for the thermocouple. For example, „KX“ means that the cable is an extension cable / insulated thermocouple wire for the thermocouple type K (NiCr-Ni)
