Product details

Key Features

  • Two-wire communication: Requires only two wires for digital communication.
  • Consistent temperature accuracy: Measurement accuracy is unaffected by cable length.
  • High sensor capacity: Supports up to 100 temperature sensors per cable.
  • High tensile strength: Withstands tensile loads exceeding 500 kg.
  • Operating temperature range: -30°C to 90°C.
  • Programmable temperature sensors.
  • Replaceable sensor core: Allows maintenance without removing the outer protective sheath.

Additional Details

The ZS-OIL-2 is a multipoint temperature monitoring cable designed for thermal energy storage tanks, water reservoirs, swimming pools, oil storage tanks, and similar applications.

The cable features a dual-layer waterproof construction. Its outer sheath is made from 304 stainless steel and undergoes pressure testing to ensure water resistance. The internal sensor core is fully encapsulated in silicone, providing a secondary waterproof barrier.

The stainless steel outer sheath provides corrosion resistance against most water-related corrosion conditions, making the cable suitable for long-term use in submerged environments.

The ZS-OIL-2 uses a two-part construction consisting of a stainless steel protective sheath and a removable temperature-sensing core. If the internal sensor core becomes damaged, it can be quickly withdrawn and replaced without removing the outer sheath from the installation.

This design significantly reduces maintenance costs and simplifies repairs, particularly in installations where removing the entire monitoring cable would be difficult or expensive.
