NEWPORT® Retractable Sensor Cable is color coded and spring coiled,
for use with thermocouples, RTD’s and thermistors. To achieve a superior
jacket construction, NEWPORT has employed the latest in jacketing
material: TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), a unique family of thermoplastics
which exhibits characteristics previously found only in rubber compounds.
TPE is extremely tough and flexible, and has excellent abrasion resistance.
Our special construction technique yields an expansion rate of up
to 500%.
NEWPORT’s retractable sensor cables are specifically recommended for
use with electronic-type indicators, either panel, handheld or bench
type models. The cables should not be used with self powered, unamplified
analog meters, such as NEWPORT® Series 7000 pyrometers. Retractable
sensor cables have hundreds of applications: oscillating machinery,
handheld surface probes, or wherever retractable sensor cables are
required.
