Thermocouple Extension & Compensating Cables

UKB is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Thermocouple Extension & Compensating Cables

UKB Electronics is a leading Indian manufacturer of high-precision Thermocouple Extension & Compensating Cables. Engineered to accuracy standards like ANSI MC96.1 and IEC 60584, these cables are essential for extending thermocouple signals to control instrumentation without degrading measurement accuracy, making them vital for process industries where temperature control is critical.

Product Anatomy

These specialized cables are constructed to precisely mimic the thermoelectric properties of the sensors they are paired with. They consist of conductors made from specific thermocouple-grade alloys, which are twisted into pairs to prevent electromagnetic interference. These pairs are insulated, shielded with metallic foil to protect the weak millivolt signal, and covered by a final protective outer sheath suitable for the application environment.

Key Features & Customisation Options

Accuracy Standards: Calibrated to ANSI MC96.1, IEC 60584, and IS 8784.
Conductor Types: Available in all standard thermocouple types (J, K, T, E, R, S, B).
Insulation Options: Wide range of insulation for different temperatures, including PVC, Fiberglass, Silicone, and high-performance PTFE (Teflon).
Robust Construction: Options for shielding against noise and stainless steel armouring for mechanical protection.
Configuration: Available in single-pair and multi-pair configurations with standard international colour coding.

Integrated Manufacturing Capabilities

Our precision is guaranteed by our in-house control over critical production stages:

Special Alloy Processing: We have specialized processes for drawing and handling specific thermocouple-grade alloys, ensuring the precise thermoelectric properties required for accurate measurement.
High-Temperature Insulation Application: Our expertise in applying specialized insulation like Fiberglass and PTFE ensures the cable maintains its integrity even when used near the heat source.
Precision Cabling & Shielding: Our automated lines ensure precise twisting and shielding, which is critical for protecting the very weak millivolt signal from electrical noise.
