OMEGA® twisted/shielded 
thermocouple wire is ideal for 
systems sensitive to induced 
voltages and electrical noise. The 
wire conductors are insulated with 
color-coded PVC, then twisted 
with a tin/copper drain wire. Next, 
an aluminized polyester tape is 
wrapped around the wires, followed 
by a final layer of PVC coating. The 
wire is UL listed for Power Limited 
Tray Cable (PLTC) applications.
Note: Overbraiding wire invalidates UL rating.

 Spool Pricing Guidelines
  Multiply 300 m or 1000' spool price by 
 multiplier and round to the nearest dollar. 
 7.5 m or 25'  = Price x 0.0625
  15 m or 50'  = Price x  0.1
 30 m or 100'  = Price x 0.175
 60 m or 200'  = Price x  0.3
 150 m or 500'  = Price x  0.5
 300 m or 1000'  =  Price x 1.0
