Type A: Stainless Steel Armor Cable
Type A1 – Rated to 482°F (250°C)
Type A2 – Rated to 450°F (232°C)
Type A3 – Rated to 842°F (450°C)
Flexible SS armor cable protects the leads against abrasion and contamination. Special plugs can be attached to heater leads and thermocouple leads.
Type B: Stainless Steel Overbraid
Type B1 – Rated to 482°F (250°C)
Type B2 – Rated to 450°F (232°C)
Type B3 – Rated to 842°F (450°C)
SS overbraid protects the leads against abrasion and allows more aggressive bending, which is not possible with armor cable.
Special plugs can be attached to heater and thermocouple leads.
Type C: Galvanized Armor Cable
Type C1 – Rated to 482°F (250°C)
Type C2 – Rated to 450°F (232°C)
Type C3 – Rated to 842°F (450°C)
Flexible galvanized armor cable protects the leads against abrasion and contamination. Special plugs can be attached to heater leads and thermocouple leads.
Type M: Plain Leads
Standard
M1 – High temperature cement potting with TGGT (Teflon® tape, fiberglass, Teflon® treated fiberglass overbraid) insulated lead wire for 482°F (250°C) and silicone sealed is standard.
Optional
M2 – High temperature epoxy potting rated 450°F (232°C) for a better moisture seal.
Optional
M3 – High temperature cement potting with MGT (mica tape, Teflon® treated fiberglass overbraid) insulated lead wire for 842°F (450°C) and silicone sealed.
Type S: Fiberglass Sleeve
Type S1 – Rated to 482°F (250°C)
Type S2 – Rated to 450°F (232°C)
Type S3 – Rated to 842°F (450°C)
Fiberglass sleeve protects the leads against abrasion and allows more flexibility of lead wires. Special plugs can be attached to heater and thermocouple leads.
