Wika Model TC46 Hot runner thermocouple

Applications

• Plastics and rubber industry
• Hot runner bushings, drops and nozzles
• Hot runner manifolds
• Moulds used in injection moulding machines
• For direct installation into the process

Special features

• Plastic-encapsulated transition eliminates all possibilities of potential defects when inserted, formed and used in hot runner systems.
• The thermocouple can be installed into the hot runne system without any fixing through bending or forming the sheathed cable or with a rotatable (if required, spring-loaded) union screw.
• The thermocouples are available with a variety of sheath materials, including austenitic 300 series and ferritic 400 series stainless steel, as well as corrosion-resistant, and at high temperatures oxidation-resistant, alloys.
• Sensor diameter from 0.5 ... 3.0 mm (0.020" ... 0.118")
• Compensating cable are available in a variety of insulation materials. These include Kapton, fibreglass, PTFE or PVC with or without stainless steel braid
