Thermocouple & Thermometer & Bare thermocouple wire & KCB Thermocouple Compensating Cable

 

 
KCB Thermocouple Compensating Cable

Features:

Type KCB and Type KX develop the same 4.095Mv EMF as thermocouple Type K at 100¡æ.
Thermocouple Compensation cables Type KCB and Thermocouple Extension Cables Type KX can be used in environments from 0'C to 90'C; Both cable types are limited by the maximum temperature rating of the overall PVC cable jacket.
