What Is Thermocouple Wire? Thermocouple wire or cable is used within a thermocouple that senses temperature using the point of cold junction compensation. Thermocouple wire is used to control instrumentation and for building the sensing point in a thermocouple and is made out of two dissimilar metals. Overmolded Thermocouple cable Usable Lengths of Thermocouple Wire There are many factors that impact the usable length of a thermocouple. The two main factors that affect the usable length of thermocouple wire are total loop resistance and electrical noise. Thermocouple wires are made of different conductor materials. Because of this, the total loop resistance varies from based on the type as well as the wire diameter and length. However, the main goal for a usable length of thermocouple wire is to keep the loop resistance under 100 ohms. With the other factor, the longer the wire, the higher the possibilities of it getting influenced by electrical/radiated noise. This long length of the wire will then affect the performance of the wire. As such the usable length of thermocouple wire is recommended not to run or exceed a minimum of 10 feet. And in case the wire is extended it is recommended to use a shield to reduce the noise interference to an acceptable level. For this purpose, a metal over brad or twisted shielded wire can be used. At the same time avoid running wires closer to sensitive areas like motors and power wires. All in all, the recommended goal for a usable wire length is to keep the wire reduced to less than 100 feet with 20 AWG or thicker wire in an area free of electromagnetic interference. Now with the recommended lengths defined, let’s get into the types of thermocouple wires available and how they differ....

Cables are definitely one of the most confusing and complicating things to understand. Especially when it comes to choosing a cable that better suits applications. In recent times molded cables have become an attraction among many users. In fact, it’s now becoming one of the comfortable cable options for users. What Is Molded Cable? Molded cables are created by injecting heated molten material into a mold cavity. The mold mechanically attaches the connectors to the cables making it a single part. This gives the cable the ability to withstand vibration, shock, and flexibility along with good exposure to a harsher environment. Molded cables have become extremely important among many users. But many users rarely notice they use a molded cable. This applies to everyday objects; you perhaps didn’t know your phone charger had a molded cable. So let’s give you a clear guide on these types of cable. How a Cable is Molded? The molding process takes a great deal of pressure in forcing material into a mold cavity. It all starts by installing molding materials into the heated barrel of the molding machine. When heated, the material melts and turns into a resin. Any desired colorants can be mixed at this point. The resin mixed with the colorant is then forced into the mold cavities. After cooling, it will then take the appearance of the mold including any trade names, logos and so on. Pretty useful right? Now let’s see the types of molded cables you can come across. Cable Inner Pre molding In Mold 2 cavities After Over molding Types Of Molded Cables There are many types of molded cables that are offered by different brands in the cable industry.

Low pressure Molding, What Is It, How It's Used and Where, the Process Low pressure molding is a technique we all see and encounter in our everyday lives, even though you may not realize it, low pressure molding is integral in many of the appliances and equipment you may use daily. It silently goes about its business and you probably don’t give it a second thought. Here at QL-Custom we have many years of experience with low pressure molding, so we thought we’d share some of the main points about this process with you in this article. Here’s a quick take away answer for you, then we’ll dive deeper into the process and benefits of low pressure molding, not only for applications but for the environment too. So What is Low Pressure Molding? Low Pressure Molding is a technique for protecting and encapsulating components prone to damage, moisture, or other external influences. Typical in applications such as wiring and printed circuit boards. Using materials known as hot-melts, polymers are used to seal around components using specialist machinery. Dimer acid based Polyamide materials often referred to as ‘hot-melts’, are thermoplastics that, when heated to specific temperatures become pliable and malleable for use around precious connectors and connections. Why it’s called Low Pressure Molding Low pressure molding, (or LPM) in particular, is as the name suggests, the use of lower pressure processes and techniques used where components may suffer from the normal pressure or extreme heat otherwise used in more industry standard pressure molding applications. To reiterate, there are two main reasons an application may require the use of Low Pressure Molding. Malleability One major factor is the need for the applied thermoplastics to be more viscose. Viscosity allows the injected material to be applied...
