Colour coding of thermoelectric and compensation cables is standardised in DIN EN 60584-3. Standardisation contributes to minimising the danger of confusion and current reversal.
The maximum operating temperature is defined by the insulating material, therefore the corresponding data sheets should be observed.
Insulating Materials | Max. Temperature |
---|---|
PVC | 105°C |
TPE-0 | 130°C |
ECTFE | 135°C |
ETFE | 155°C |
Silicone | 180°C |
FEP | 205°C |
MFA | 235°C |
PFA | 260°C |
E-Glass Fiber | 400°C |
R-Glass Fiber | 700°C |
Silica | 1000°C |
Nextel | 1200°C |
