455-9815 RS PRO Fascia Thermocouple Connector for Use with Type N Thermocouple, Miniature, IEC Standard

RS PRO IEC Colour Coded Miniature Thermocouple Panel Mounting Socket Connectors_x000D_ From RS PRO a miniature panel mounting thermocouple socket connector colour-coded in accordance with IEC specification. The connector housing features a moulded fascia for a flush fit when mounting through the panel. The connector is made from a rugged thermoplastic and is colour-coded for easy thermocouple identification. The contacts are designed to accept polarized flat pins to ensure an accurate connection. A clip is supplied with this female connector enabling it to be secured quickly and easily to the rear of the panel._x000D_ What is a Thermocouple Connector?_x000D_ These miniature thermocouple connectors are an accurate and convenient way of interconnecting your temperature sensing components. Using thermocouple connectors allows a chain to be formed from the measuring tip of your temperature sensor to the host computer or meter. It is important that all the components in the chain are made from the same thermocouple material to prevent any alteration or distortion of the original signal. To achieve this, thermocouple connectors have contacts made from the same material as the thermocouple they are being used to connect or a compensating material. The connector housing has the thermocouple type clearly printed on it and is also colour-coded for easy identification. The thermocouple wires are simply screwed down into place using two captive screw clamps._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ • Contacts made from true thermocouple alloys or a compensating material for accurate signal transmission_x000D_ • Colour-coded for quick and easy identification_x000D_ • Moulded fascia for flush fitting on front of panel_x000D_ • Accepts polarized flat pin contacts for an accurate connection_x000D_ • Made from rugged glass-filled thermoplastic_x000D_ • Able to withstand temperatures of up to 120°C_x000D_ • Simple captive screw clamp connection for quick assembly_x000D_ • Polarity and thermocouple type clearly marked on the socket housing_x000D_ • Supplied with clip for quick and secure mounting to the panel_x000D_ Applications_x000D_ These miniature thermocouple connectors are used in any application where thermocouples are installed, extended or replaced.
