PEEKSense™ Thermocouple Series
High temperature thermocouple for PEEK composites curing
The TE Wire PEEKSense™ Thermocouple Series is the next generation of temperature sensing products for the manufacturing of advanced aerospace thermoplastic composites. These high temperature autoclave thermocouple assemblies for PEEK composite applications retains the same proven characteristics of our AccuClave® product line. PEEKSense was specifically designed with our customers’ needs in mind, bringing together the best of TE Wire’s temperature sensing capabilities and our quality guarantee to reach greater temperatures for longer cycles.
Our PEEKSense™ thermocouples withstand up to 400°C (752°F) and can handle all PEEK, PEKK, and PAEK processing temperatures without melting. They are fiberglass-free and provide better handling characteristics for autoclave composites operators.
PEEKSense standard wire construction incorporates a flame-retardant applied liquid polyimide. The thermocouple does not unravel like typical polyimide films, nor will it leak under pressure or vacuum environment once sealed under the bagging film.
Best of all, they deliver significant cost savings that results from a trackable ROI in labor savings for your autoclave composites operations.
Every AccuClave thermocouple, including PEEKSense, can be conveniently traced to its calibration data and manufacturing information via TRAC.
