Abstract: A gas blocking cable includes cabled wires, where each wire includes cabled conductors having interstitial areas there between. An insulation material circumferentially surrounds the cabled conductors and a conductor filling material is positioned within the interstitial areas between conductors. A shield circumferentially surrounds the cabled wires so that a cable is formed with areas between the wires. A wire filling material is positioned within the areas between the wires. Each of the conductor filling material and wire filling material is inert, non-flammable and able to withstand a temperature of at least approximately 200° C.

Abstract: A thermocouple ribbon features a pair of flat conductors and first and second layers of a polyimide film covering the conductors. The polyimide film preferably is coated with a fluoropolymer, such as fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP). During manufacture of the thermocouple ribbon, the first and second layers of polyimide film, with the pair of flat conductors positioned there between, are heated above the melting temperature of the FEP. The completed thermocouple ribbon is then cooled. A thermocouple connector may then be attached to a first end of the thermocouple ribbon, while a welded thermocouple junction may be formed at a second end of the thermocouple ribbon.

Abstract: A gas blocking cable includes cabled wires, where each wire includes cabled conductors having interstitial areas there between. An insulation material circumferentially surrounds the cabled conductors and a conductor filling material is positioned within the interstitial areas between conductors. A shield circumferentially surrounds the cabled wires so that a cable is formed with areas between the wires. A wire filling material is positioned within the areas between the wires. Each of the conductor filling material and wire filling material is inert, non-flammable and able to withstand a temperature of at least approximately 200° C.

Abstract: An armored cable features a core and an armor generally surrounding the core and having an inner diameter. The armor has a thickness of 0.001 to 0.100 times the inner diameter of the armor. In addition, the armor has corrugations with a pitch of 0.050 to 1.000 times the inner diameter of the armor. The armor has a corrugation depth of 0.010 to 0.400 times the inner diameter of the armor.
