Description

This cable is great for manufacturing sensors or for use as extension wire. Available in 2, 3 and 4 wire constructions, two color codes (red/black or red/white), three insulation and jacketing materials (PFA, Fiberglass and FEP) and three conductor sizes (#20 AWG Solid, #24 or #26 AWG Stranded) this cable will work with a wide variety of applications. Standard spool lengths include 100, 500 and 1000 Mtrs.

Wire Materials

When specifying the lead wire materials, care should be taken to select the right lead wires for the temperature and environment the sensor will be exposed to in service. When selecting lead wires, temperature is by far the primary consideration, however, physical properties such as abrasion resistance and water submersion characteristics can also be important. Below is a table listing the capabilities of the three most popular constructions:
