Industrial thermocouple extension wire

The Tempco ECA00070 is a 10 ft Type J extension wire built with 20 AWG stranded conductors. It connects a Type J thermocouple sensor to instrumentation across industrial and laboratory environments. The cable features BX stainless steel armor over glass filled nylon braid for mechanical protection. A standard Type J plug and nylon filled thermoplastic jack complete the assembly.

Replaces worn or short sensor leads

Use this extension when an existing thermocouple cable has degraded or when the sensor must sit farther from the readout. The 900 Degrees F maximum temperature rating matches the original sensor capability so the measurement chain stays valid. The jump is worth it when the current lead limits placement or shows insulation damage.

Verify sensor type and connector style

Confirm the sensor is Type J before ordering because extension wire must match the thermocouple alloy. Check that the instrument accepts a standard Type J plug and that the 0.270 in outer diameter fits through any conduit or gland. Ensure the 10 ft length covers the required run without excess slack.

Questions about this item

What outer diameter clearance does the .270 in SS armor require for routing?

The stainless steel armor measures .270 in outer diameter, so allow at least that much clearance plus bend radius when routing through conduit or cable trays.

How do you attach the Type J standard plug without reversing polarity?

The plug uses a standard Type J configuration; match the positive and negative pins to the colour-coded conductors before tightening the set screws.

When should the glass-filled nylon insulation be inspected or replaced?

Inspect the insulation if the cable sees temperatures near the 900 °F / 482 °C limit or after mechanical damage; replace it if the nylon shows cracking, discoloration or melted spots.
