The “Male Connectors” are the fitting attached to the ends of wires (heat penetration cable) which plug into the thermocouples. They are available in the “non-locking” (C-6) and “locking” (C-10). The “locking” type should be used when agitation or stress might cause the connector to become disconnected from the thermocouple. The “locking” connector incorporates a threaded ring that screws onto the external thread on the locking receptacle securing the connection during processing.

The counterparts for the “male” connectors described above are the female fittings designated as C-7 for “non-locking” and the C-7.1 for the “locking”. They may be used with the male connectors to make a “quick disconnect”.

Sub-Miniature Connectors - These connectors are characterized by a flat blade and are manufactured from type “T” (copper-constantan) materials. They are used to connect leads to the Ecklund Esra slip ring assembly and are compatible with many data loggers.
