- Connector Type: Mini plug (male) + socket (female) set
- Housing Material: Heat-resistant thermoset plastic (green, IEC color for Type K)
- Contact Pins: Nickel-chromium (KP) / Nickel-aluminum (KN) alloy
- Termination: Screw clamp for 0.35-1.0mm diameter conductors
- Operating Temperature: -20℃ to +200℃ continuous; up to 220℃ short-term
- Compliant Standards: IEC 60584-3, ASTM E230, RoHS 2.0
- Manufacturer: Tankii Alloy Material, ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certified
Key Advantages
Material-Matched Signal Integrity
- Alloy contact pins match Type K thermocouple composition, minimizing thermal EMF error
- Precision-machined pins provide stable, low-resistance connection (<5mΩ)
High-Temperature Housing & Durability
- Heat-resistant plastic withstands 200℃ continuous operation without deformation
- Positive locking design prevents accidental disconnection in vibration-prone applications
Easy Termination & Compatibility
- Tool-free screw terminals accommodate 0.35-1.0mm diameter thermocouple wires
- IEC color coding eliminates wiring errors for universal Type K compatibility
