Thermocouple Extension Wire and Cable from AutomationDirect

April 16, 2020

Extension cable for both Type K and Type J thermocouples is available with either an overall shield (OS) or with individually shielded pairs with an overall shield (SPOS). These cables allow the connection of multiple field sensors to operating instrumentation or PLC input cards with one run versus having to install multiple extension wires.

The 20AWG thermocouple extension cable is available in 2, 4, and 8 twisted pairs. Alphanumeric print on the twisted pairs makes identifying the pairs for installation and troubleshooting easy.

The thermocouple extension cable is UL PLTC rated. PLTC cable (Power Limited Tray Cable) is rated at 105°C, 300V and is approved for use in Class I, Division 2 Hazardous Locations.

AutomationDirect’s UL approved thermocouple extension wire and cable starts at $0.87 per foot and is cut to length in 1-foot increments with a low 20-foot minimum length.

AutomationDirect: IDEM Two-hand Safety Control Panels

AutomationDirect has recently announceed the addition of IDEM two-hand safety control panels to their safety products portfolio. Two-hand safety control panels, used with a special control monitoring relay, require an operator to use both hands simultaneously during a hazardous operation. This forces operators to keep their hands on the two-hand control actuator and out of harm’s way. New IDEM products include a control station with momentary pushbuttons, a control station with zero-force touch buttons, and an empty two-hand control station enclosure for custom configurations. Enclosures are made of die-cast aluminum; replacement buttons are available.
