Conductors for High-Temperature and Corrosive Environments
Describe the temperature profile, chemical medium and mechanical duty of the conductor. Include the fluid or gas, concentration, exposure time, joining method and the role of any insulation or pressure barrier. These details help separate conductor requirements from the requirements of the complete sensor or assembly.

Identify the conductor or connection
NCC provides a nickel outer layer over a copper core; CCS uses a steel core and copper surface. Choose the candidate for the actual electrical and mechanical duty, then define the layer structure and product form.
Specify the exposure
Include the medium, concentration, temperature and duration, plus pressure only where the component design requires it. Add vibration or fatigue, insulation and joining requirements. A wire material name does not establish the pressure rating of a sensor or assembly.
Sample checks
Use corrosion, electrical and mechanical checks for the actual formed part and its exposed edges and joints. Include the acceptance methods and component specification with the inquiry.
