Insulation Material Operating temperature range [°C] Properties
PCW (PCV) -10÷105 Applied in mild environmental conditions. Waterproof and flexible.
Yc- polyvinylchloride -10÷105 Applied in mild environmental conditions. Waterproof and flexible.
FEP-teflon -50÷200 Resistant to oils, acids and other aggressive liquids. Good flexibility.
Si-silicone -50÷180 Waterproof, flexible. Applied in high humidity
conditions.
Ws-fiberglass -60÷400 Good resistance to high temperature Low resistance to liquid penetration.
Notes: Additionally, copper or steel braids/shields are used on wires to prevent electrical noises, Increasing, at the same time, wire insulation resistance to mechanical damages. In case of longer wire lengths grounding may be needed to minimize the noise in measurement circuit
