TPE is extremely tough **submini connector.** and flexible, and has excellent abrasion resistance. Our special construction technique yields an i expansion rate of up to 500%. OMEGA’s retractable sensor cables are specifically recommended for | use with electronic-type indicators, either panel, handheld or bench type models. The cables should not be used with self powered, unamplified analog meters, such as OMEGA[®] Series 7000 pyrometers. Retractable sensor cables have hundreds of applications: oscillating machinery, handheld surface **Termination** probes, or wherever retractable **Style 0 bare wires.** sensor cables are required. **Shown larger than actual size.** ## **Specifications** **Insulation:** TPE thermoplastic elastomer outer jacket **Inner conductors:** PFA **Calibrations:** ANSI Type J, K, T, E and 3-wire copper for RTDs and thermistors **Thermocouple Wire Conformity:** Standard Limits of Error, per ANSI MC 96.1 (1975) **Temperature Rating:** -30 to 105°C (-22 to 220°F) **Construction:** 28 gauge stranded wire (7 strand x 36 gauge) **Length:** Nominal coiled lengths of 30 cm (1'), 60 cm (2'), 90 cm (3'), or 120 cm (4') with 15 cm (6") straight ends, nominal maximum expanded length of 30 cm (1') coil = approx. 150 cm (5') **Length Tolerance:** ±10% **Available in J, K, T, N and E calibrations and uncompensated for RTDs and thermistors.** **ANSI To order color IEC color code code visit shown us online** **H-45** **H** **==> picture [174 x 69] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**
