Teflon SS Braided Thermocouple Wire

A. Product Overview

Teflon Teflon SS Braided Thermocouple Wire is a specially designed industrial wire used for temperature measurement and temperature sensing applications. It is made with Teflon/PTFE insulation and an outer stainless steel braided layer.

The Teflon/PTFE insulation helps the wire withstand high temperatures and chemical exposure. The stainless steel braiding protects the wire from mechanical damage, abrasion, vibration and external stress. This makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments where normal PVC or rubber insulated wires may fail.

This wire is commonly used with thermocouples in furnaces, motors, transformers, industrial machines, heat treatment equipment, automotive systems, aerospace equipment and process industries.

B. Working Principle

A thermocouple wire works by connecting two different metal conductors that generate a small voltage when there is a temperature difference between the measuring junction and the reference junction. This voltage signal is then read by a temperature indicator, controller, transmitter or data acquisition system.

In Teflon Teflon SS Braided Thermocouple Wire, the Teflon/PTFE insulation protects the conductor from heat, moisture and chemicals. The stainless steel braiding acts as a protective outer layer and helps prevent damage due to bending, rubbing, pulling, vibration and mechanical stress.

The stainless steel braid can also provide a level of electromagnetic interference protection, helping to reduce signal disturbance in sensitive industrial temperature measurement applications.

C. Why It Is Used

Teflon Teflon SS Braided Thermocouple Wire is used when the application requires better protection than standard thermocouple wire.

It is used because it offers:

High temperature resistance up to approximately 260 degree Celsius

Good chemical resistance in harsh industrial environments

Protection against abrasion and mechanical damage

Better durability in machines, motors and moving areas
