Sandvik KANTHAL Iron Thermocouple
Subcategory: Aluminum Alloy
Material Notes: IRON is the positive leg of thermocouples type J, L, and it is also the positive leg of compensating cables type KCA (WX). Thermocouple type J and L are frequently used because of their high emf output and their low cost. Compensating cables of type KCA are used together with thermocouples of type K.IRON can not be exposed to sulphur containing atmospheres and to temperatures below zero. The alloy is transformed magnetically at 770°C, and a crystallographic transformation occurs at 900°C. Both transformations affect the thermoelectric
properties of the alloy. The wire is supplied copper-coated in order to prevent oxidation. Information provided by Sandvik
