4. Design and function
4.1 Description
These resistance thermometers detect temperatures in processes. These thermometers are
suitable for low and medium process requirements, depending on the design.
They are assembled as thermometers with a connection head. Optinal a transmitter can
be mounted into the connection head. For this temperature transmitter, an own operating
instructions will be enclosed.
Using these thermometers without a thermowell is not permitted.
4.2 Scope of delivery

Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g. change in
installation site, sending for repair).
5.3 Storage
Permissible conditions at the place of storage:
■
Storage temperature:
Instruments without built-in transmitter: -40 ... +85 °C
Instruments with built-in transmitter:
see operating instructions of the transmitter in
question
■
Humidity: 35 ... 85 % relative humidity (no condensation)
Avoidance of exposure to the following factors:
■
Direct sunlight or proximity to hot objects
■
